About These Units
Square Foot per Hour (ft²/h)
Square feet per hour (ft²/h) equals 0.258 stokes or 25.8 centistokes. Used for slow-flowing, high-viscosity materials like heavy oils, asphalt, and polymer melts. Provides convenient numbers for very viscous fluids. One ft²/s = 3,600 ft²/h.
Pound-force Second per Square Foot (lbf·s/ft²)
Pound-force second per square foot (lbf·s/ft²) is the primary US imperial dynamic viscosity unit, equal to 47.88 Pa·s. Used in HVAC, hydraulics, and US engineering calculations. Also called poundal-second per square foot. Water is about 2.1×10⁻⁵ lbf·s/ft².
