Calculate Flow Rate (ml/hour)
Understanding flow rate is crucial in many applications, from medical infusions to industrial processes. The flow rate is the volume of fluid that passes a point per unit of time. When working with milliliters (ml) and hours (hour), we often need to convert between different time units (like minutes) to get the desired flow rate in ml/hour.
The basic formula for flow rate is:
Flow Rate = Volume / Time
If you have a volume measured in milliliters (ml) and a time measured in minutes (min), and you want to express the flow rate in milliliters per hour (ml/hour), you can use the following steps:
- Calculate the flow rate in ml per minute by dividing the volume (ml) by the time (min).
- Multiply the result by 60 (since there are 60 minutes in an hour) to convert the flow rate to ml per hour.
Alternatively, if you have the volume in ml and the time in hours directly, you can simply divide the volume by the time to get the flow rate in ml/hour.
This calculator helps you easily determine the flow rate in ml/hour, whether your initial time measurement is in minutes or hours.
