Volumetric Flow Rate

L/mintoL/hr

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

Factor1 L/min = 60 L/hr

Converter

L/min

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

Result
6000L/hr

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
L/hr = L/min × 60

Multiply any value in litres per minute by 60 to obtain the value in litres per hour.

Worked example

Convert 100 L/min to L/hr.

  1. 01Start with 100 L/min.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 100 × 60 = 6000 L/hr.
Result100 L/min = 6000 L/hr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from L/min to L/hr?
1 L/min equals 60 L/hr. To convert, multiply the value in litres per minute by 60.
How do I convert 1 L/min to L/hr?
1 L/min = 60 L/hr. For any value, multiply by 60.
How do I convert L/hr back to L/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.01666667. So 1 L/hr = 0.0166667 L/min.
When would I need to convert litre per minute to litre per hour?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. L/min to L/hr 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).
