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.
Square meter per second
Square meter per second measures dynamic viscosity divided by density.
History: Kinematic viscosity uses area per time dimensions to describe momentum diffusion in fluids.
Current use: Used in fluid mechanics, lubrication, hydraulics, petroleum products, and transport calculations.
Also written as m^2/s.
