L/(min·m²)toL/m²/day

Convert litres per minute per square metre (volumetric flux) (L/(min·m²)) to litres per square metre per day (L/m²/day).

Factor1 L/(min·m²) = 1440 L/m²/day

Converter

L/(min·m²)

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

Result
1440L/m²/day

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
L/m²/day = L/(min·m²) × 1440

Multiply any value in litres per minute per square metre (volumetric flux) by 1440 to obtain the value in litres per square metre per day.

Worked example

Convert 1 L/(min·m²) to L/m²/day.

  1. 01Start with 1 L/(min·m²).
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 1440 = 1440 L/m²/day.
Result1 L/(min·m²) = 1440 L/m²/day

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from L/(min·m²) to L/m²/day?
1 L/(min·m²) equals 1440 L/m²/day. To convert, multiply the value in litres per minute per square metre (volumetric flux) by 1440.
How do I convert 1 L/(min·m²) to L/m²/day?
1 L/(min·m²) = 1440 L/m²/day. For any value, multiply by 1440.
How do I convert L/m²/day back to L/(min·m²)?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.0006944444. So 1 L/m²/day = 0.000694444 L/(min·m²).
When would I need to convert litre per minute per square metre (volumetric flux) to litre per square metre per day?
Volumetric-flux conversions between L/(min·m²) and L/m²/day are routine in membrane filtration (RO, UF, MF, NF permeate flux), hydraulic loading specification, water-treatment design, hydrometallurgy and packed-bed column loading, and environmental engineering. LMH (L/m²/h) and gfd (gal/ft²/day) dominate membrane datasheets; m³/m²/h and m³/m²/day cover SI engineering ladders; m/day and cm/s appear as superficial velocity in hydromet and packed-bed work. Volumetric flux is the same physical quantity as superficial velocity (m³/m²/s ≡ m/s) but is kept distinct from the velocity and flow categories because the engineering intent is volumetric throughput per unit area, not bulk motion or total throughput.
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).
