About These Units

Poise (P)

The poise (P) is the CGS unit of dynamic viscosity equal to 0.1 Pa·s or 100 centipoise. Named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille who studied blood flow. Water is 0.01 P, glycerin is ~15 P at 20°C. One poise = 1 g/(cm·s) = 1 dyn·s/cm².

Square Foot per Second (ft²/s)

Square feet per second (ft²/s) is the US imperial kinematic viscosity unit equal to 929 stokes or 92,903 centistokes. Water at 20°C: 1.08×10⁻⁵ ft²/s. Used in US fluid mechanics, pipe flow calculations, and HVAC engineering. One ft²/s = 0.0929 m²/s.
