How to Convert mL/min to Liters per Hour
To convert ml/min to liters per hour, multiply the flow rate by the following conversion ratio: 0.06 liters per hour/milliliters per minute.
Since one milliliters per minute is equal to 0.06 liters per hour, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The flow rate in liters per hour is equal to the flow rate in ml/min multiplied by 0.06.
For example, here's how to convert 5 ml/min to liters per hour using the formula above.
How Many Liters per Hour Are in a Milliliters per Minute?
There are 0.06 liters per hour in a milliliters per minute, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
Our milliliters per minute to liters per hour calculator automatically converts your flow rate measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.
mL/min and liters per hour are both units used to measure flow rate. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Is a Milliliters per Minute?
A milliliters per minute is a unit of flow rate equal to 1/1,000 of a liters per minute (0.001 L/min). Equal to 0.001 L/min (1 cm³/min). [1]
The milliliters per minute is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of flow rate. mL/min can be abbreviated as mL/min; for example, 1 milliliters per minute can be written as 1 mL/min.
In the metric system, "milli" is the standard SI prefix for thousandths, or 10⁻³. This makes the milliliters per minute (mL/min) a convenient decimal multiple of the liters per minute (L/min).
In practice, ml/min (mL/min) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale flow rate measurements within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
What Is a Liters per Hour?
A liters per hour is a unit of flow rate equal to 1/60 of a liters per minute (0.0166667 L/min). Equal to 1/60 L/min. [2]
The liters per hour is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of flow rate. Liters per Hour can be abbreviated as L/h; for example, 1 liters per hour can be written as 1 L/h.
When working with liters per hour (L/h) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.
In practice, liters per hour (L/h) are widely used across standard flow rate applications within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.
When converting flow rate between ml/min (mL/min) and liters per hour (L/h), keep full floating-point precision (1 mL/min = 0.06 L/h; 1 L/h = 16.6666667 mL/min) during intermediate calculations and round only the final liters per hour figure to match your instrument tolerance.
