About These Units

Square Inch per Second (in²/s)

Square inches per second (in²/s) equals 6.45 stokes or 645 centistokes. Used for moderate viscosity materials in imperial units. Water at 20°C: 1.55×10⁻³ in²/s. One ft²/s = 144 in²/s. Common in smaller-scale US engineering applications.

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.
