How to Convert Cubic Meter/Second to Liter/Second

To convert from Cubic Meter/Second (m³/s) to Liter/Second (L/s), multiply the value by 1,000.

Formula: L/s = m³/s × 1,000

Reverse: m³/s = L/s × 0.001

Step-by-Step Example

Start with your value in Cubic Meter/Second. For example: 5 m³/s
Multiply by the conversion factor: 5 x 1,000
The result is: 5,000 L/s

About Cubic Meter/Second

The cubic meter/second (m³/s) is a unit of flow rate. One cubic meter/second equals 1 base unit. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other flow rate unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: flow rate calculations, engineering and science, education.

About Liter/Second

The liter/second (L/s) is a unit of flow rate. One liter/second equals 0.001 base units. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other flow rate unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: flow rate calculations, engineering and science, education.
