Convert Square Centimeter per Second to Stokes
Enter the number of square centimeters per second that you want to convert to stokes.
How to Convert Square Centimeters per Second to Stokes
The square centimeter per second and stokes are both units of viscosity. By definition, 1 square centimeter per second equals exactly 1 stokes. This means to convert square centimeters per second to stokes, you multiply by 1.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 cm²/s to stokes:
We need to convert square centimeters per second to stokes
Since 1 cm²/s = 1 St, multiply by 1
5 × 1 = 5
5 cm²/s = 5 St

About These Units
Square Centimeter per Second (cm²/s)
Square centimeters per second (cm²/s) equals one stokes (St). Water at 20°C: 0.01 cm²/s, motor oil: 1-5 cm²/s at 40°C. One cm²/s = 100 mm²/s = 100 cSt. Bridges between SI (m²/s) and common industrial units (cSt).
Stokes (St)
The stokes (St) is the CGS unit of kinematic viscosity equal to 1 cm²/s or 100 centistokes. Named after physicist George Stokes. Water at 20°C: 0.01 St, light motor oil: 0.3-1 St at 40°C. One stokes = 10⁻⁴ m²/s. Common in technical literature.
