What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms values of kinematic viscosity measured in square foot per second (ft^2/s) into square meter per hour (m^2/h). It assists in translating between US customary and SI-based units adjusted for different time scales, supporting engineering and scientific calculations.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the numeric value representing kinematic viscosity in square foot per second.
  • Select the input unit as square foot/second [ft^2/s].
  • Choose the output unit as square meter/hour [m^2/h].
  • Click the convert button to obtain the result in m^2/h.
  • Use the converted value for engineering or scientific analysis.

Key Features

  • Converts kinematic viscosity units from ft^2/s to m^2/h accurately.
  • Supports engineering and environmental modeling applications.
  • Browser-based and easy to use with clear unit definitions.
  • Facilitates conversion for fluids like lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids, and fuels.
  • Includes examples for quick understanding.

Examples

  • 2 ft^2/s is converted to 668.901888 m^2/h by multiplying 2 by 334.4509440003.
  • 0.5 ft^2/s equals 167.225472 m^2/h after conversion using the factor 334.4509440003.

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying kinematic viscosity on US customary engineering data sheets.
  • Calculating fluid flow regimes using Reynolds number in Imperial units.
  • Reporting viscosity for slow, large-scale flows with hourly time units.
  • Modeling hydraulic and reservoir flows using hour-based viscous diffusion.
  • Converting lab viscosity measurements to field-scale results across unit systems.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure consistency in time units when converting between ft^2/s and m^2/h.
  • Use sufficient numerical precision to avoid rounding errors on large conversion factors.
  • Apply this conversion only to kinematic viscosity values as defined.
  • Cross-check converted values when comparing with reference data in different units.

Limitations

  • Square meter/hour units incorporate hours, differing from the seconds-based square foot/second units.
  • Large conversion factors may lead to inaccuracies if precision is insufficient.
  • This specific conversion is applicable solely for kinematic viscosity and not for other viscosity or velocity units.
  • Maintaining unit consistency is crucial to avoid errors in engineering calculations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does square foot per second measure?
Square foot per second (ft^2/s) is an Imperial unit of kinematic viscosity, representing how momentum diffuses through a fluid over an area per second.

Why convert square foot/second to square meter/hour?
Converting to square meter/hour helps harmonize data with SI units when time scales are expressed in hours, useful in field-scale modeling and engineering analyses.

Can this conversion be used for dynamic viscosity?
No, this converter is specific to kinematic viscosity and should not be applied directly to other viscosity types without appropriate adjustments.

Key Terminology

Square foot per second [ft^2/s]
An Imperial measure of kinematic viscosity indicating the rate of momentum diffusion in fluid per square foot area per second.
Square meter per hour [m^2/h]
An SI-based unit of kinematic viscosity representing momentum diffusion over one square meter area per hour.
Kinematic Viscosity
The ratio of dynamic viscosity to fluid density representing how quickly momentum diffuses through a fluid.
