poise to centistokes
Please provide values below to convert poise [P] to centistokes [cSt], or change ↔.
poise [P]
Definition: A poise is a unit of dynamic viscosity that measures the internal friction of a fluid. One poise is equivalent to one dyne·second per square centimeter.
Historyandorigin: Named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille, a French physicist who studied the flow of liquids, the poise was widely used in medical and laboratory settings.
CurrentUse: Though somewhat replaced by the pascal second, it can still be found in older scientific and engineering literature.
funfact: A poise is a relatively large unit of viscosity—most fluids have viscosities much smaller than one poise!
centistokes [cSt]
Definition: The centistoke is one one-hundredth of a stoke, used to measure the kinematic viscosity of fluids.
Historyandorigin: A smaller unit derived from the stoke, it is used for more precise viscosity measurements in fluid dynamics.
CurrentUse: Widely used in industries such as automotive, lubrication, and food processing.
funfact: Centistokes are commonly used to measure oils, where the viscosity can be very low but still crucial to machine function!

How to Convert poise to centistokes
1 poise [P] = 0.1 centistokes [cSt]
1 centistokes [cSt] = 10 poise [P]
we use cross multiplication method
poise [P] → centistokes [cSt]
1 → 0.1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.1=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.15
