How to Convert Square Feet per Second to Stokes

The square foot per second and stokes are both units of viscosity. 1 square foot per second equals 929.0304 stokes. This means to convert square feet per second to stokes, you multiply by 929.0304.

Formula

stokes = square feet per second × 929.0304

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 ft²/s to stokes:

1
Convert 5 ft²/s to stokes

We need to convert square feet per second to stokes

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 ft²/s = 929.0304 St, multiply by 929.0304

5 × 929.0304 = 4645.152

Answer

5 ft²/s = 4645.152 St

About These Units

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.

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.
