What does milliliter per minute measure?

Milliliter per minute measures the volumetric flow rate of fluid passing a point, commonly used for small flow rates in medical and laboratory settings.

What is an acre-foot per year used for?

An acre-foot per year quantifies large volumes of water flow or usage over a year, primarily in water resource management and irrigation planning.

How is the conversion from mL/min to ac*ft/y calculated?

The conversion is done using the factor 1 mL/min equals 0.0004261092 ac*ft/y, applying direct multiplication to convert flow values.

What Is This Tool?

This unit converter facilitates the transformation of flow rates measured in milliliters per minute into acre-feet per year. It caters to contexts requiring conversion between precise small-scale flow rates and larger long-term volumetric flows, particularly valuable in hydrology, water resource planning, and related fields.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the volumetric flow rate value in milliliters per minute
Select 'milliliter/minute' as the input unit and 'acre-foot/year' as the output unit
Initiate the conversion to obtain the equivalent flow in acre-foot per year

Key Features

Supports conversion between milliliter per minute and acre-foot per year units
User-friendly interface designed for flow rate measurements
Based on a clear conversion factor: 1 mL/min equals 0.0004261092 ac*ft/y
Suitable for applications across medical, laboratory, and environmental engineering

Examples

Convert 10 mL/min: 10 × 0.0004261092 = 0.004261092 ac*ft/y
Convert 100 mL/min: 100 × 0.0004261092 = 0.04261092 ac*ft/y

Common Use Cases

Setting intravenous drug infusion rates with precision
Managing small flow rates in laboratory and analytical chemistry experiments
Planning water resources and calculating reservoir yield over a year
Allocating irrigation water rights in agricultural regions
Forecasting regional or municipal water supply demands

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure units are correctly selected to avoid conversion errors
Consider the scale differences between small laboratory flows and large water resource volumes
Use this conversion for integrating micro-scale measurements into large-scale water planning

Limitations

Milliliter/minute measures very small short-term flow rates, while acre-foot/year captures large, long-term volumes
Conversions require careful handling of time and volume scale differences
Not suitable for applications needing instantaneous or very small volume measurements in large scale units
