Kilogram-force Second per Square Meter
kgf·s/m²
Definition
The kilogram-force second per square meter is a unit of dynamic viscosity in the gravitational metric system, representing the resistance of a fluid to flow when a force of one kilogram-force per square meter is applied.
History/Origin
This unit originates from the gravitational metric system, where force is measured in kilogram-force rather than newtons. It was commonly used in engineering applications before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Still used in some engineering contexts, particularly in countries that historically used the gravitational metric system. It provides a practical measure for engineers working with force-based calculations.

Kilopoise
kP
Definition
The kilopoise is a unit of dynamic viscosity, representing 10^3 poise. It is used for measuring the viscosity of moderately viscous materials in various applications.
History/Origin
This unit was created by applying the kilo- prefix to the poise, providing a scale for measuring moderately high viscosities in scientific and engineering contexts.
Current Use
Used in various applications where materials have moderately high viscosities, such as certain oils, polymers, and thick fluids.
