Petastokes
PSt
Definition
The petastokes is a very large unit of kinematic viscosity, representing 10^15 stokes. It is used for measuring the kinematic viscosity of very viscous materials in specialized applications.
History/Origin
This unit was created by applying the peta- prefix to the stokes, providing a scale for measuring very high kinematic viscosities in scientific and engineering contexts.
Current Use
Used in specialized applications where materials have very high kinematic viscosities, such as certain polymers, geological materials, and extremely thick fluids.

Square Centimeter per Second
cm²/s
Definition
The square centimeter per second is a CGS unit of kinematic viscosity, representing the ratio of dynamic viscosity to density in the centimeter-gram-second system. It is commonly used in scientific literature and provides a practical scale for many measurements.
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 kinematic viscosity measurements.
Current Use
Still used in many scientific contexts, particularly in older literature and certain specialized fields. It is particularly useful for measuring the kinematic viscosity of liquids and gases in laboratory settings.
