What Is This Tool?

This converter allows users to transform dynamic viscosity measurements expressed in pound/foot/hour, an imperial engineering unit, into kilogram-force second per square meter, a non-SI metric force unit used in viscosity contexts. It facilitates compatibility between legacy imperial data and metric unit systems.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the viscosity value in pound/foot/hour format
  • Select the source unit pound/foot/hour [lb/(ft*h)]
  • Choose the target unit kilogram-force second/square meter
  • Click convert to obtain the equivalent viscosity in kilogram-force second/square meter
  • Use the result for engineering analyses or documentation requiring metric force units

Key Features

  • Converts viscosity units from pound/foot/hour to kilogram-force second/square meter
  • Supports engineering and fluid dynamics applications involving viscosity data
  • Highlights conversion relevant to lubrication, hydraulic, and petroleum processing contexts
  • Provides clear examples of conversion steps
  • Browser-based and easy to use for fluid property calculations

Examples

  • 10 lb/(ft*h) converts to 0.000421529 kilogram-force second/square meter
  • 100 lb/(ft*h) converts to 0.00421529 kilogram-force second/square meter

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying lubricant viscosity in US-customary engineering documents
  • Performing viscous flow calculations for piping or equipment using imperial units
  • Interpreting viscosity values in older literature that uses kilogram-force units
  • Converting legacy fluid property data to SI-compatible units for rheological analysis
  • Reporting viscosities for hydraulic fluids in systems designed with non-SI force units

Tips & Best Practices

  • Double-check the time unit since pound/foot/hour is hour-based while the metric may involve seconds
  • Consider additional conversion to pascal-second if standard SI units are needed
  • Ensure numerical accuracy due to the small conversion factor to avoid precision loss
  • Use consistent unit systems within the engineering or scientific context to avoid errors

Limitations

  • The conversion factor is small, which can affect numerical precision if not handled properly
  • Pound/foot/hour uses an hour-based time scale that requires careful comparison with second-based units
  • Kilogram-force second/square meter is a non-SI unit and often needs further conversion for SI analyses

Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound/foot/hour measure in fluid mechanics?
It measures dynamic viscosity, representing a fluid's resistance to shear using imperial engineering units based on force and time per area.

Why convert to kilogram-force second per square meter?
This unit helps report or interpret viscosity values in systems or documents that use kilogram-force units, offering compatibility with non-SI engineering data.

Can I use kilogram-force second/square meter directly in SI-based calculations?
Since it is a non-SI unit, it often requires further conversion to pascal-second for proper SI-based fluid dynamic analyses.

Key Terminology

Pound/foot/hour [lb/(ft*h)]
An imperial unit of dynamic viscosity expressing fluid resistance to shear, utilizing force-time per unit area with time measured in hours.
Kilogram-force second/square meter
A non-SI unit for dynamic viscosity representing shear resistance expressed in kilogram-force times seconds per square meter.
Dynamic Viscosity
A fluid property indicating its internal resistance to flow and deformation due to shear stress.
