What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to translate dynamic viscosity measurements from the imperial unit pound/foot/second into the CGS unit decipoise (dP). It supports applications in engineering, industry, and laboratory settings where viscosity needs to be expressed in different unit systems.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the viscosity value expressed in pound/foot/second.
  • Select pound/foot/second as the source unit and decipoise [dP] as the target unit.
  • Click convert to view the equivalent viscosity in decipoise.
  • Use the result for comparisons, engineering design, or laboratory documentation.

Key Features

  • Converts dynamic viscosity from pound/foot/second to decipoise [dP]
  • Based on the precise conversion rate of 1 pound/foot/second = 148.8163943568 dP
  • Supports usage in engineering, lubricant specification, and laboratory testing
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation

Examples

  • Convert 2 pound/foot/second to decipoise: 2 × 148.8163943568 = 297.6327887136 dP
  • Convert 0.5 pound/foot/second to decipoise: 0.5 × 148.8163943568 = 74.4081971784 dP

Common Use Cases

  • Engineering fluid flow and shear stress analysis using imperial units
  • Specifying lubricants and hydraulic fluids in US-based technical datasheets
  • Laboratory measurements for industrial testing with imperial calibration
  • Characterizing viscosities of oils and food products in industrial applications

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure accurate input values to maintain conversion reliability
  • Confirm the measurement unit before conversion to prevent errors
  • Use the converter for cross-system laboratory comparisons and specifications
  • Consider unit system differences when interpreting results to avoid rounding impacts

Limitations

  • Rounding errors may occur due to differences between unit systems
  • Pound/foot/second is less common internationally, requiring conversions for global uses

Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound/foot/second measure?
It is an imperial unit of dynamic viscosity quantifying a fluid's resistance to shear flow as one pound-force second per square foot.

What is decipoise (dP)?
Decipoise is a CGS unit of dynamic viscosity equal to one tenth of a poise, commonly used to measure fluid viscosity in industrial and laboratory contexts.

Why convert viscosity from pound/foot/second to decipoise?
This conversion helps translate measurements from imperial units used in US-based engineering to CGS units preferred in laboratory analysis and international standards.

Key Terminology

Pound/foot/second
An imperial unit of dynamic viscosity, equal to one pound-force second per square foot, representing fluid resistance to shear flow.
Decipoise (dP)
A CGS unit of dynamic viscosity equal to one tenth of a poise, used to measure fluid internal resistance to shear flow.
Dynamic Viscosity
A measure of a fluid's internal resistance to flow under an applied force, quantified in various unit systems.
