Millipoise

mP

Definition

The millipoise is a unit of dynamic viscosity, representing 10^-3 poise. It is used for measuring the viscosity of low-viscosity fluids such as gases and very thin liquids.

History/Origin

This unit was created by applying the milli- prefix to the poise, providing a scale for measuring low viscosities in scientific and engineering contexts.

Current Use

Used in fluid mechanics and engineering for measuring the viscosity of gases, very thin liquids, and low-viscosity fluids where the poise would be too large a unit.

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.
