Square Millimeter per Second

mm²/s

Definition

The square millimeter per second is a unit of kinematic viscosity, representing the ratio of dynamic viscosity to density over a very small area. It is used for measuring low kinematic viscosities and provides a convenient scale for many practical applications.

History/Origin

This unit was created by applying the millimeter length unit to the square meter per second, providing a more convenient scale for measuring low kinematic viscosities in engineering and scientific applications.

Current Use

Commonly used in engineering and scientific applications where the square meter per second would be too large a unit. It is particularly useful for measuring the kinematic viscosity of oils, lubricants, and other fluids.

Decistokes

dSt

Definition

The decistokes is a unit of kinematic viscosity, representing 10^-1 stokes. It is used for measuring the kinematic viscosity of moderately viscous materials in various applications.

History/Origin

This unit was created by applying the deci- prefix to the stokes, providing a scale for measuring moderately low kinematic viscosities in scientific and engineering contexts.

Current Use

Used in various applications where materials have moderately low kinematic viscosities, such as certain oils, polymers, and fluids.
