pound-force second/square foot to poise
Please provide values below to convert pound-force second/square foot [lbf·s/ft²] to poise [P], or change ↔.
pound-force second/square foot [lbf·s/ft²]
Definition: A unit of viscosity measuring the force required to move a fluid over a square foot of surface area.
Historyandorigin: Part of the imperial system, this unit has been historically used in engineering applications involving large-scale fluid dynamics.
CurrentUse: Used for heavy-duty applications, like in the transportation or manufacturing industries.
funfact: It’s often found in the measurement of the viscosity of oils in large machinery and engines!
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!
