Convert kinematic viscosity units including square meters per second, stokes, centistokes, square feet per second, square inches per second, and more.
Square meters per second to centistokes:
1 m²/s = 1,000,000 cSt
Centistokes to square meters per second:
1 cSt = 0.000001 m²/s
Stokes to centistokes:
1 St = 100 cSt
Square feet per second to square meters per second:
1 ft²/s = 0.092903 m²/s
Kinematic viscosity conversions are useful for oil grades, hydraulic fluids, fuel testing, lubrication, pipe flow, Reynolds number calculations, pumps, bearings, and fluid mechanics.
Use this converter when comparing SI, CGS, and U.S. customary kinematic viscosity units.
Your result shows the entered kinematic viscosity converted from the starting unit into the selected ending unit. The calculator also shows the conversion rate used so you can verify the calculation.
For engineering and fluid calculations, make sure the viscosity unit matches your formula, fluid data sheet, lab result, pump chart, or Reynolds number calculation.
Kinematic viscosity is dynamic viscosity divided by density. It describes how easily a fluid flows under its own weight.
The SI unit of kinematic viscosity is square meters per second, abbreviated as m²/s.
Yes. cSt is the abbreviation for centistoke, a common kinematic viscosity unit used for oils and fluids.
Dynamic viscosity measures resistance to flow. Kinematic viscosity adjusts that resistance by dividing by fluid density.
This converter is designed for viscosity magnitude conversions, so it uses non-negative values.
