What does liter/day [L/d] measure?

Liter/day (L/d) is a volumetric flow rate unit that shows how many liters of fluid are moved each day, often used for low-to-moderate flow volumes in medical, environmental, and engineering fields.

Why convert liter/day to gallon (UK)/second?

Converting from liter/day to gallon (UK)/second helps translate daily total volumes into instantaneous flow rates for systems using imperial units, such as British waterworks or firefighting equipment.

Are there any limitations to using this conversion?

Yes, this conversion assumes steady flows and exact unit definitions, so it may not reflect transient flow changes and requires precise usage to avoid engineering calculation errors.
