MTH Pumps - Viscosity Conversion

Type a value in any of the fields to convert between Viscosity measurements:
A unit of measurement for viscosity equivalent to one-hundredth of a poise and symbolized by cP. centipoise (cP) (= millipascal second, mPa·s)
The dyne is defined as "the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimeter per second squared". dyne second per square centimeter (dyn·s cm^-2)
A gram- force, is a gravitational unit of force. That is one gram force is defined as the force exerted by one gram of mass in the standard value of a gravitational field. gram force seconds per centimeter (gf·s cm^-1)
A system of units based on the centimeter as the unit of length, the gram as the unit of mass, and the second as the unit of time. gram per centimeter second [g (cm·s)^-1]
The kilogram-force is equal to a mass of one kilogram multiplied by the standard acceleration due to gravity on Earth, which is defined as exactly 9.80665 meter per second². kilogram force seconds per square meter (kgf·s m^-2)
Kilogram per meter-hour is a unit of measurement of dynamic viscosity. kilogram per meter hour [kg (m·h)^-1]
A unit of energy and work in the meter-kilogram-second system, equal to the work performed by a one-kilogram force acting through a distance of one meter kilogram per meter second [kg (m·s)^-1]
A micropoise (µP) is a decimal fraction of the unit of dynamic (absolute) viscosity in the centimeter gram second (CGS) system of units, poise. micropoise (µP)
The newton-second (N times s) is the standard unit of impulse. It is expressed as the product of applied force multiplied by time. newton second per square meter (N·s m^-2)
This is the SI unit of viscosity, equivalent to newton-second per square meter (N·s m–2). It is sometimes referred to as the “poiseuille” (Pl). One poise is exactly 0.1 Pa·s. One poiseuille is 10 poise or 1000 cP, while 1 cP = 1 mPa·s (one millipascal-second). pascal second (Pa·s)
A poise is the centimeter-gram-second (cgs) unit of viscosity. poise (P)
Pounds or Pounds Force per Square Foot is a British (Imperial) and American pressure unit which is directly related to the psi pressure unit by a factor of 144 (1 sq ft = 12 in x 12 in = 144 sq in). 1 pound per square foot equals 47.8803 pascals. pound force seconds per square foot (lbf·s ft^-2)
The pound per square inch or, more accurately, pound-force per square inch (symbol: lbf/in2; abbreviation: psi) is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch. pound force seconds per square inch (lbf·s in^-2)
Pound / foot-hour is a unit to measure Dynamic Viscosity Where: 1 Pound / foot-hour = 0.0004 Kilogram / meter-second. pound per foot hour [lb (ft·h)^-1]
A unit of length equal to 1,760 yards or 5,280 feet; exactly 1609.344 meters. synonyms: international mile, land mile, mi, stat mi, statute mile. type of: linear measure, linear unit. a unit of measurement of length. pound per foot second [lb (ft·s)^-1]
Pound Force-Inch-Second (lbf-in-s) is a unit in the category of Angular momentum, Action. It is also known as pound force inch second. Pound Force-Inch-Second (lbf-in-s) has a dimension of ML2T-1 where M is mass, L is length, and T is time. pound per inch second [lb (in·s)^-1]
The poundal is defined as the force necessary to accelerate 1 pound-mass at 1 foot per second per second. poundal seconds per square foot (pdl·s ft^-2)
In fluid dynamics, the reyn is a British unit of dynamic viscosity, named in honour of Osbourne Reynolds, for whom the Reynolds number is also named. reyn (reyn)
A slug is defined as the mass that is accelerated by 1 ft/s2 when a net force of one pound (lbf) is exerted on it. slugs per foot second [slug (ft·s)^-1]
