Square meter per second quick reference
| Square meter per second | Centistokes | Square foot per second | Square millimeter per second |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 m²/s | = 1000000 cSt | ≈ 10.76391042 ft²/s | = 1000000 mm²/s |
| 10 m²/s | = 10000000 cSt | ≈ 107.6391042 ft²/s | = 10000000 mm²/s |
| 100 m²/s | = 100000000 cSt | ≈ 1076.391042 ft²/s | = 100000000 mm²/s |
| 1000 m²/s | = 1000000000 cSt | ≈ 10763.91042 ft²/s | = 1000000000 mm²/s |
Where the square meter per second fits
The next smaller kinematic viscosity unit is the square foot per second (ft²/s). 1 m²/s ≈ 10.76391042 ft²/s, and 1 ft²/s = 0.09290304 m²/s.
