Question 1

How do you convert kiloliters per day to L/s?

Accepted Answer

Divide by 86.4. Example: 1000 kL/day = 11.57 L/s. (1 kL = 1000 L, 1 day = 86,400 s)

Question 2

Where is kL/day used?

Accepted Answer

Industrial water usage reporting, swimming pool circulation rates, and medium-scale water treatment.

Question 3

How does pipe diameter affect flow rate?

Accepted Answer

Flow rate is proportional to the square of diameter. Doubling pipe diameter quadruples potential flow rate at the same pressure.

Question 4

What's the difference between volume and mass flow rate?

Accepted Answer

Volume flow (gallons/min) ignores fluid density. Mass flow (kg/s) accounts for density, important when density changes with temperature or pressure.
