Viscosity Converter
Convert between different viscosity units including pascal-seconds, poise, centipoise, stokes, and centistokes
Dynamic viscosity - resistance to flow
Dynamic viscosity - resistance to flow
Viscosity Types:
- • Dynamic Viscosity: Resistance to flow (Pa·s, P, cP)
- • Kinematic Viscosity: Dynamic viscosity ÷ density (St, cSt, m²/s)
Common Fluid Viscosities (at 20°C):
- • Air: ~0.018 cP
- • Water: ~1.0 cP
- • Motor oil: ~100-300 cP
- • Honey: ~10,000 cP
- • Glycerol: ~1,400 cP
About Viscosity Converter
A comprehensive viscosity converter tool that allows you to convert between various viscosity measurement units. Whether you're working in fluid mechanics, chemical engineering, petroleum industry, or materials science, this tool provides accurate conversions between dynamic viscosity units (pascal-seconds, poise, centipoise) and kinematic viscosity units (stokes, centistokes).
Why use a Viscosity Converter?
Viscosity conversion is essential in fluid mechanics, chemical engineering, and materials science. Different industries and regions use different viscosity units - SI units like pascal-seconds, CGS units like poise and stokes, and practical units like centipoise. This tool eliminates conversion errors and saves time when working with fluid properties, pump calculations, and material specifications.
Who is it for?
This tool is perfect for chemical engineers, mechanical engineers, fluid mechanics specialists, petroleum engineers, materials scientists, laboratory technicians, students studying fluid mechanics, and professionals working with viscous fluids who need accurate viscosity unit conversions.
