How to convert poise to pascal seconds
Dynamic viscosity relates shear stress to shear rate. It becomes kinematic viscosity only after division by density. For non-Newtonian fluids, the stated value may depend on shear rate.
Use x for the value in P, b for the intermediate value in Pa·s, and y for the result in Pa·s.
Pa·s = P × 0.1
Worked examples
10 P ≈ 1 Pa·s
Step 1: (10 × 0.1) ≈ 1 Pa·s.
Step 2: 1 ÷ 1 ≈ 1 Pa·s.20 P ≈ 2 Pa·s
Step 1: (20 × 0.1) ≈ 2 Pa·s.
Step 2: 2 ÷ 1 ≈ 2 Pa·s.
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About Poise
Poise (P) measures viscosity dynamic under the conventions above. The base value in Pa·s is (x × 0.1), where x is the numerical value in P. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Pascal seconds
Pascal seconds (Pa·s) measures viscosity dynamic under the conventions above. The base value in Pa·s is (x × 1), where x is the numerical value in Pa·s. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
