Pascal Second

Pa·s

Definition

The pascal second is the SI unit of dynamic viscosity, representing the resistance of a fluid to flow when a force is applied. It is defined as the viscosity of a fluid in which a force of one newton per square meter produces a velocity gradient of one meter per second per meter.

History/Origin

Named after Blaise Pascal, this unit was established as part of the International System of Units (SI) to provide a standardized measure of dynamic viscosity. It replaced the older CGS unit of poise in scientific and engineering applications.

Current Use

Widely used in engineering, physics, and fluid mechanics for characterizing the flow properties of liquids and gases. It is the standard unit in scientific literature and international standards for viscosity measurements.

Slug per Foot per Second

slug/(ft·s)

Definition

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

History/Origin

This unit originates from the imperial system of measurements, where mass is measured in slugs and length in 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.
