What is an exastoke (ESt)?

An exastoke is a very large unit of kinematic viscosity equal to 10^18 stokes or 10^14 m²/s, used mostly for theoretical or extremely large viscosity values.

Why convert exastokes to square inch per second?

Converting to square inch per second helps express large viscosity values in imperial units commonly used in engineering, fluid dynamics, and certain industrial applications.

Are square inch per second units commonly used worldwide?

No, square inch per second is primarily used in imperial or US customary measurement systems and is less common outside those contexts.
