L/hrtoL/min

Convert litres per hour (L/hr) to litres per minute (L/min).

Factor1 L/hr = 0.01666667 L/min

Converter

L/hr

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
100L/min

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
L/min = L/hr × 0.01666667

Multiply any value in litres per hour by 0.01666667 to obtain the value in litres per minute.

Worked example

Convert 6000 L/hr to L/min.

  1. 01Start with 6000 L/hr.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 6000 × 0.01666667 = 100 L/min.
Result6000 L/hr = 100 L/min

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from L/hr to L/min?
1 L/hr equals 0.01666667 L/min. To convert, multiply the value in litres per hour by 0.01666667.
How do I convert 1 L/hr to L/min?
1 L/hr = 0.0166667 L/min. For any value, multiply by 0.01666667.
How do I convert L/min back to L/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 60. So 1 L/min = 60 L/hr.
When would I need to convert litre per hour to litre per minute?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. L/hr to L/min is a frequently needed conversion for flow datasheet preparation.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
