pound-force second/square inch to poise
Please provide values below to convert pound-force second/square inch [lbf·s/in²] to poise [P], or change ↔.
pound-force second/square inch [lbf·s/in²]
Definition: This is a unit used to measure the viscosity of a fluid, utilizing the pound-force in relation to the square inch.
Historyandorigin: Rooted in imperial measurements, this unit was commonly used in industries operating in the U.S. before the widespread adoption of SI units.
CurrentUse: It is still used in certain mechanical and hydraulic systems, especially in countries using imperial units.
funfact: This unit is helpful in industries like automotive engineering, where viscosity needs to be measured in imperial units!
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!
