pound/foot/hour to centipoise
Please provide values below to convert pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h] to centipoise [cP], or change ↔.
pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h]
Definition: A viscosity unit that uses pounds of force per foot per hour, useful for very slow-moving fluids.
Historyandorigin: An extension of the imperial system, it was used in very specific cases where slow flow rates were encountered.
CurrentUse: Now mostly obsolete, it is occasionally used in specialized applications that require slow fluid movement to be quantified.
funfact: This unit might seem rare, but it once helped engineers measure extremely slow-moving fluids in industries like oil and gas!
centipoise [cP]
Definition: The centipoise is one one-hundredth of a poise and is commonly used to measure the viscosity of liquids.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise, it is more practical for measuring the viscosity of common fluids like water and oil.
CurrentUse: The centipoise is frequently used in industries like lubrication, cosmetics, and food science, where it is easier to work with than the larger poise unit.
funfact: Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise at 20°C—making it a useful baseline for viscosity measurements!

How to Convert pound/foot/hour to centipoise
1 pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h] = 0.0000053574 centipoise [cP]
1 centipoise [cP] = 186658.04864 pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h]
we use cross multiplication method
pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h] → centipoise [cP]
1 → 0.0000053574
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0000053574=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0000080361
