Square Foot per Hour
ft²/h
Definition
The square foot per hour is an imperial unit of kinematic viscosity, representing the ratio of dynamic viscosity to density over a time period of one hour. It is used for measuring very low kinematic viscosities in imperial units.
History/Origin
This unit was created by applying the hour time unit to the square foot per second, providing a more convenient scale for measuring very low kinematic viscosities in imperial unit systems.
Current Use
Used in specialized applications where very low kinematic viscosities need to be expressed in imperial units over hourly time periods, particularly in certain industrial processes and scientific measurements.

Stokes
St
Definition
The stokes is a unit of kinematic viscosity in the CGS system, named after George Gabriel Stokes. It represents the ratio of dynamic viscosity to density and is widely used in scientific and engineering applications for measuring fluid flow characteristics.
History/Origin
Named after George Gabriel Stokes, a British mathematician and physicist who made significant contributions to fluid dynamics. The stokes was the standard unit of kinematic viscosity in the CGS system and is still widely used in many industries.
Current Use
Extensively used in the petroleum industry, chemical engineering, and fluid mechanics for measuring the kinematic viscosity of oils, polymers, and other fluids. It is often more convenient than the square meter per second for practical applications.
