What does square millimeter/second measure?

It measures the rate of momentum diffusion through a fluid, representing kinematic viscosity commonly used in metric systems.

Why convert square millimeter/second to square foot/second?

Because square foot/second is the Imperial unit for kinematic viscosity, needed for US customary engineering data and fluid mechanics calculations.

Does this conversion account for temperature variations?

No, temperature effects on viscosity are not included in the unit conversion process.
