How to Convert Cubic centimeter/hour to Liter/second

Converting Cubic centimeter/hour (cm³/h) to Liter/second (L/s) is a core calculation in Volumetric Flow Rate, which quantifies the volume of fluid passing through a designated conduit cross-section per unit of time. Because Liter/second is a broader physical scale than Cubic centimeter/hour, converting from cm³/h to L/s condenses the numerical figure. It takes 3600000 Cubic centimeter/hour to equal a single Liter/second (1 cm³/h = 2.777778 × 10⁻⁷ L/s). To convert any quantity, multiply by 2.777778 × 10⁻⁷ (or divide by 3600000).

Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (cubic meter per second (m³/s)) without arbitrary rounding:

V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)

1. Source SI Bridge (k_source):1 cm³/h = 2.777778 × 10⁻¹⁰ cubic meter per second (m³/s)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 L/s = 0.001 cubic meter per second (m³/s)

Step-by-step substitution for Cubic centimeter/hour → Liter/second:V(L/s) = V(cm³/h) × ( 2.777778 × 10⁻¹⁰ / 0.001 ) = V(cm³/h) × 2.777778 × 10⁻⁷

Mathematical FormulaValue in Liter/second = Value in Cubic centimeter/hour × 2.77777778 × 10⁻⁷Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.

Worked Example

To convert 12 Cubic centimeter/hour (cm³/h) to Liter/second (L/s): multiply 12 by 2.777778 × 10⁻⁷ to get 3.333333 × 10⁻⁶ L/s. At an industrial engineering scale, 5000 cm³/h converts to 0.00138889 L/s.

Inverse check: 1 L/s = 3600000 cm³/h.
