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.

Poundal Second per Square Foot

pdl·s/ft²

Definition

The poundal second per square foot is an imperial unit of dynamic viscosity, representing the resistance of a fluid to flow when a force of one poundal per square foot is applied.

History/Origin

This unit originates from the imperial system of measurements, where force is measured in poundals and area in square feet. It was commonly used in engineering applications in the United States and other countries using imperial units.

Current Use

Still used in some engineering contexts, particularly in the United States and other countries that use imperial units. It provides a practical measure for engineers working with force-based calculations in imperial units.
