-
Setting and monitoring dosing pumps for chemicals and fertilizers with appropriate flow unit conversions.
-
Controlling and measuring liquid flows in laboratory processes, pharmaceutical compounding, and beverage dispensing.
-
Evaluating small leak or microfluidic flow rates in technical and engineering applications.
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure input values are accurate to maintain conversion reliability.
-
Consider fluid properties and environmental conditions affecting flow measurements.
-
Use continuous flow conditions to apply this conversion reliably.
-
Double-check converted values when precision is critical to experimental or industrial processes.
Limitations

Small magnitude differences require precise attention to decimal values.
-
Variations in temperature and fluid density may affect volumetric flow consistency.
-
Assumes steady, continuous flow without pulsations or turbulence for accurate conversion.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does liter per hour (L/h) measure?
-
Liter per hour is a volumetric flow rate unit measuring the volume of liquid passing a point each hour, often used for low to moderate liquid flows.
-
How is ounce (UK)/second defined?
-
Ounce (UK)/second measures the amount of imperial fluid ounces flowing per second, with one ounce (UK) equal to 28.4130625 millilitres.
-
When should I use this converter?
-
Use this converter to translate flow rates from liter/hour to ounce (UK)/second when working in industries like beverage dispensing, pharmaceutical dosing, or microfluidics.
Key Terminology
-
Liter per hour [L/h]
-
A unit representing the volume of liquid flowing past a point each hour, used for measuring low to moderate continuous flow rates.
-
Ounce (UK)/second
-
A flow rate unit indicating how many imperial fluid ounces pass a point every second, commonly used in beverage and pharmaceutical dosing applications.
-
Volumetric Flow Rate
-
The measurement of volume of fluid passing through a point per unit of time.
