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.

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.
