Everything about The Poise totally explained
The
poise (symbol P; ) is the unit of dynamic
viscosity in the
centimetre gram second system of units. It is named after
Jean Louis Marie Poiseuille.
» 1 P = 1 g·cm
−1·s
−1
The analogous unit in the
International System of Units is the
pascal second (Pa·s):
» 1 Pa·s = 1 kg·m
−1·s
−1 = 10 P
The poise is often used with the
metric prefix centi-. A
centipoise is one millipascal-second (mPa·s) in SI units. (1 cP = 10
-2P = 10
-3 Pa·s) Centipoise is properly abbreviated cP, but the alternate abbreviations cps and cPs are also commonly seen.
Water has a viscosity of 0.0089 poise at 25 °C, or 1 centipoise at 20 °C.
