Square Meter per Second
m²/s
Definition
The square meter per second is the SI unit of kinematic viscosity, representing the ratio of dynamic viscosity to density. It measures the rate at which momentum is transferred through a fluid due to molecular motion and is fundamental in fluid mechanics and heat transfer calculations.
History/Origin
This unit was established as part of the International System of Units (SI) to provide a standardized measure of kinematic viscosity. It replaced the older CGS unit of stokes in scientific and engineering applications, offering a more practical scale for most measurements.
Current Use
Widely used in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and chemical engineering for characterizing fluid flow behavior. It is essential for calculating Reynolds numbers, Prandtl numbers, and other dimensionless parameters in engineering analysis.

Square Meter per Hour
m²/h
Definition
The square meter per hour is a 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 or for applications where hourly rates are more convenient.
History/Origin
This unit was created by applying the hour time unit to the square meter per second, providing a more convenient scale for measuring very low kinematic viscosities in certain industrial and scientific applications.
Current Use
Used in specialized applications where very low kinematic viscosities need to be expressed in hourly terms, particularly in certain industrial processes and scientific measurements where the standard second-based unit would be too small.
