  • Use consistent units throughout engineering documents for clarity and compliance
  • Understand that both units represent the same physical quantity but may vary by industry preference

Limitations

  • Viscosity values depend on temperature conditions which must be stated during conversion
  • Units are interchangeable but regional and industry preferences may differ
  • Conversion accuracy relies on the exactness of underlying fluid property measurements

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the relationship between square millimeter/second and centistokes?
Square millimeter/second and centistokes represent the same kinematic viscosity value with 1 mm²/s equal to 1 cSt.

Why is temperature important when converting these units?
Viscosity is temperature-dependent, so specifying the reference temperature ensures the conversion reflects accurate fluid flow behavior.

Can I use these units interchangeably in engineering specifications?
Yes, both measure kinematic viscosity, but it’s best to follow industry or regional standards to maintain uniformity.

Key Terminology

Square millimeter/second (mm²/s)
A kinematic viscosity unit measuring rate of momentum diffusion in fluid, equivalent to 1 × 10⁻⁶ m²/s and equal to 1 centistoke.
Centistoke (cSt)
A unit of kinematic viscosity equaling 1 × 10⁻⁶ m²/s or 1 mm²/s, describing a fluid’s resistance to flow under gravity.
Kinematic viscosity
The ratio of a fluid's dynamic viscosity to its density, indicating how a fluid flows under gravitational force.
