What does milliliter per day measure?

Milliliter per day measures the volume of fluid moved, produced, or consumed continuously over one day, ideal for low flow rates.

What is an acre-foot per year?

An acre-foot per year is a flow rate indicating one acre-foot volume delivered or used throughout one year, commonly used in water management.

Why convert milliliters per day to acre-feet per year?

This conversion helps translate precise small daily flows into larger annual volumes for applications like water resource planning and supply forecasting.

What Is This Tool?

This unit converter transforms volumetric flow values from milliliter per day, a measure of very low daily fluid volumes, into acre-foot per year, which expresses large annual water volumes. It's designed to assist in fields ranging from clinical fluid monitoring to water resource management.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the flow value in milliliters per day (mL/d) in the input field.
Select milliliter/day as the input unit and acre-foot/year as the output unit.
Click convert to see the equivalent flow rate expressed in acre-foot per year (ac*ft/y).
Use the converted result for planning or analysis according to your application context.

Key Features

Converts precise low daily flow rates (mL/d) to large-scale annual volumes (ac*ft/y).
Supports applications in medicine, laboratory research, and environmental water planning.
Easy to use with direct input and clear output of converted flow rates.
Browser-based tool requiring no installation.

Examples

1000 milliliters per day converts to approximately 0.0002959 acre-foot per year.
5000 milliliters per day is equivalent to about 0.0014795 acre-foot per year.

Common Use Cases

Monitoring daily fluid output in clinical environments such as urine or surgical drain measurements.
Measuring small-scale leak or seepage rates in laboratory or environmental microfluidics studies.
Calculating yearly agricultural irrigation water allocations and surface-water rights.
Forecasting municipal or regional water supply demands over a year.

Tips & Best Practices

Confirm the scale is appropriate: milliliter/day suits precise daily volumes, acre-foot/year fits larger annual volumes.
Interpret conversions with attention to context due to scale difference between units.
Use the converter for converting low-volume flows to long-term water resource planning units.
Validate converted results for critical applications involving sensitive measurements.

Limitations

Milliliter/day and acre-foot/year represent vastly different volume scales requiring careful context use.
Conversion of very small daily flow rates to annual units may be sensitive to rounding or measurement limits.
The tool does not account for variability or non-continuous flow conditions.
