Stokes to Millistokes Converter

Use this page to convert stokes values into millistokes, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

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.

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.
