Pound-force Second per Square Foot
lbf·s/ft²
Definition
The pound-force second per square foot 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 force is measured in pounds-force 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.

Dyne Second per Square Centimeter
dyn·s/cm²
Definition
The dyne second per square centimeter is a CGS unit of dynamic viscosity, representing the resistance of a fluid to flow when a force of one dyne per square centimeter is applied.
History/Origin
This unit is part of the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units, which was widely used in physics and chemistry before the adoption of the SI system. It provides a smaller base unit for viscosity measurements.
Current Use
Still used in some scientific contexts, particularly in older literature and certain specialized fields. It is particularly useful for measuring the viscosity of very thin fluids and gases.
