The liter and hour are not a part of the international metric system of units, but have in it the special status of "units which can be used together with SI". Therefore they are often applied in common to designation of speed of a consumption of liquid and gaseous substances. Depending on a time interval of measurement of this size, different derivatives of hour - minutes, seconds, day, etc. are used.
Instruction
1. Change in proportion the set substance consumption size at change of time of measurement. For example, when translating of the spent volume from liters a day in liters an hour it is necessary to reduce the known size of an expense by 24 times as duration of hour is so many times less than duration of day. Similarly when translating of the spent volumes from liters a second in liters a minute the size should be increased by sixty times as minute contains so many seconds.
2. Use any converter of sizes that it was not necessary to calculate figures in mind. One of such online converters can be found on the website of the Google search engine. He has no separate interface, and uses the same entry field which is intended for input of usual search queries - it does process of converting of sizes extremely simple. For example, if it is required to learn how many it is spent liters a minute if it is known that in a second 45.28 liters are spent, then begin with transition to the homepage of the searcher - http://www.google.com. Then enter into the only field on this page such inquiry: "45.28 p/a in l/min". The button of sending inquiry will not be required to be pressed, the searcher and without it will show result: 45.28 p/a = 2,716.8 l/min.
3. Use the calculator if you do not trust online converters or you have no Internet access. Windows OS incorporates the appropriate program imitating the interface of the ordinary calculator. It is possible to open it in several ways, the fastest of which uses standard dialogue of start of programs. To use, press a combination of the keys WIN + R, then enter the calc team and press the Enter key.
