To convert litres per second (L/s) to quarts per second (qt/s), you need to know the conversion factor between litres and quarts.
1 litre (L) is approximately equal to 1.05669 quarts (qt).
So, if you have a flow rate of 1 L/s, you would convert it to quarts per second as follows:
1 L/s × 1.05669 qt/L = 1.05669 qt/s
Therefore, 1 L/s is approximately 1.05669 quarts per second.
A typical garden hose may have a flow rate of approximately 0.1 to 0.3 litres per second (L/s) depending on the water pressure and the hose's diameter. This would be:
An average shower might have a flow rate of about 0.1 to 0.2 L/s.
A fire hose can have a much higher flow rate, such as 10 to 20 litres per second:
Small streams or rivers might have flow rates measured in larger quantities, such as 1000 litres per second.
Average residential water usage for every individual in a developed country is estimated to be around 0.014 L/s (litres per second).
By understanding these real-world examples and the conversion factor between litres and quarts, you can get a better grasp of different flow rates in terms that might be more familiar to you.
See below section for step by step unit conversion with formulas and explanations. Please refer to the table below for a list of all the Quarts per second to other unit conversions.
Liters per second measures amount of fluid passes though a cross-sectional area. In short, it measures flow rate.
Flow rate can be calculated using following formula:
- Flow rate
- Volume (Liters)
- Time in seconds
- Cross-sectional area
- Distance the fluid traveled during the time
For more in-depth understanding of the flow rate read Flow Rate and Its Relation to Velocity from LibreTexts Physics website.
A unit of measurement!
Quarts per second (q/s) is a unit of flow rate, which measures the volume of fluid (such as water or liquid) that passes through a given area in one second.
In the United States customary system (USCS), there are 57.75 cubic inches (in³) in a quart. So, to calculate quarts per second, we can use the following conversion:
1 quart = 57.75 cubic inches 1 second = 1 second
Therefore,
1 quart per second = 57.75 cubic inches per second
Quarts per second is often used as a unit of measurement for fluids in applications such as:
It's worth noting that quarts per second is not a commonly used unit in the International System of Units (SI), which prefers units like cubic meters per second (m³/s) or liters per minute (L/min). However, it may still be encountered in certain contexts where USCS units are preferred.
