Millistokes
One millistokes is equal to one ten-millionth of a square meter per second (1e-7 square meters per second).
History: Millistokes follows decimal scaling of the stokes.
Current use: Used for low-viscosity fluids and conversion-table compatibility.
Also written as mSt.
Stokes
One stokes is equal to 0.0001 square meters per second.
History: The stokes is named after George Gabriel Stokes and is the CGS unit of kinematic viscosity.
Current use: Used in older fluid-property references and as the parent unit of centistokes.
Also written as St.
