Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound-force second per square foot measure?
It is a dynamic viscosity unit in the Imperial/US customary system that quantifies a fluid’s resistance to shear flow.

Why convert from pound-force second/sq. foot to kilogram-force second/square meter?
To translate viscosity values from Imperial units to non-SI units still used in some engineering contexts, aiding integration of legacy and modern data.

Are these units part of the SI system?
No, both pound-force second/sq. foot and kilogram-force second/square meter are non-SI units used in specific legacy or regional applications.

Key Terminology

Pound-force second per square foot
An Imperial/US customary unit of dynamic viscosity quantifying a fluid’s resistance to shear flow, equivalent to one pound-force of shear on one square foot area with a unit velocity gradient.
Kilogram-force second per square meter
A non-SI dynamic viscosity unit that measures resistance to shear deformation, equal to one kilogram-force second per square meter and related to the pascal-second SI unit.
Dynamic (Absolute) Viscosity
A measurement of a fluid's resistance to flow or internal friction under applied shear stress.
