What does terastokes measure?

Terastokes (TSt) is a unit of kinematic viscosity representing extremely large values; it expresses the ratio of a fluid's dynamic viscosity to its density.

Why convert terastokes to decistokes?

Converting to decistokes helps express very large viscosities in smaller CGS units better suited for detailed laboratory and industrial fluid analyses.

Can the tool handle very large values without errors?

While the tool can convert large values, very high numbers may cause computational overflow or precision issues in some environments.
