Converting volume flow units for gases
Volume flows of gases are specified internationally in different units. Our quick converter supports:
- Nl/min → Nl/h: Standard liters per minute in per hour
- Nm³/h → Nl/min: Convert cubic meters to liters
- Between all combinations: Direct conversion
- Flow meter specs: Understanding data sheets
- Recipes & Processes: Standardize different source formats
Conversion factors:
- 1 Nm³/h = 1000 Nl/h = 16.67 Nl/min
- 1 Nl/min = 0.06 Nl/h = 0.00006 Nm³/h
- 1 Nm³/min = 1000 Nl/min = 60 Nm³/h
Important: All specifications refer to standard conditions (0°C, 1013 mbar). Actual flow rates under operating conditions are different! Mass flow controllers (MFC) regulate to standard conditions, regardless of the actual pressure/temperature.
Practical tip: Pay close attention to the unit in offers and data sheets! 10 Nm³/h sounds like 10 m³/h, but at 10 bar operating pressure it is only 1 m³/h actual flow rate. Misunderstandings can lead to incorrect dimensioning. Always use standard conditions as a reference!
