What does 1 liter/second represent?

It represents a volumetric flow rate where one litre of volume passes through a point every second, commonly used in engineering and laboratory settings.

Where is acre-foot/day commonly used?

Acre-foot per day is often used in water-resources engineering, agricultural irrigation, and managing reservoir or river inflows.

Can this tool be used for pulsatile flow measurements?

No, the conversion assumes steady flow conditions and does not account for fluctuating or pulsatile flows.

What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to change flow measurements from liter per second, a common unit in engineering and lab environments, to acre-foot per day, a unit often used in water-resources and agricultural contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow value in liter per second (L/s) into the input field
Select liter/second as the original unit and acre-foot/day as the target unit
Click the convert button to see the equivalent flow rate in acre-foot per day
Refer to provided examples if needed for clarity

Key Features

Converts volumetric flow rates from liter/second to acre-foot/day accurately
Useful for translating small-scale flow data into large-scale water management measurements
Supports applications in engineering, agriculture, municipal, and environmental planning
Browser-based and easy to use without any installations
Provides examples for straightforward understanding

Examples

10 liter/second equals approximately 0.700453398 acre-foot/day
5 liter/second equals approximately 0.350226699 acre-foot/day

Common Use Cases

Measuring domestic water flow from taps and plumbing fixtures
Specifying pump flow rates in laboratory or process applications
Expressing ventilation flow rates per person in HVAC calculations
Planning irrigation water delivery for agricultural areas
Managing reservoir and river inflows for water-resource planning
Accounting for industrial and municipal water withdrawals

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure that input values represent steady flow conditions for accurate conversion
Be cautious when converting very small flow rates due to scale differences
Always double-check which time units are involved to prevent conversion errors
Use examples as guidance to verify your results
Apply this tool for planning and managing water resources effectively

Limitations

Precision may be reduced when converting very small flows because liter/second is much smaller scale than acre-foot/day
Different time units (seconds vs. days) require careful consideration during conversion
Does not account for dynamic or pulsating flows, assumes steady flow only
