Description

The Reyn: A British Unit of Dynamic Viscosity

The Reyn is a British unit of dynamic viscosity, named in honor of Osborne Reynolds, a pioneer in fluid mechanics. It represents the force in pound-force required to move a fluid layer over another with a velocity gradient of one inch per second across a one-inch gap.

While the Reyn is largely obsolete, understanding this unit is important when dealing with historical engineering documents and literature. It provides insight into the evolution of viscosity measurement and the development of fluid dynamics as a discipline.

Converting the Reyn to SI units involves multiplying by approximately 6890, yielding the equivalent value in Pascal seconds (Pa·s).

Dyne Second per Square Centimeter (dyn·s/cm²): A CGS Unit of Viscosity

The Dyne second per square centimeter (dyn·s/cm²) is a unit of dynamic viscosity in the CGS system, equivalent to one Poise. It represents the force in dynes required to move a fluid layer over another with a velocity gradient of one centimeter per second across a one-centimeter gap.

While less common in modern applications, this unit is still encountered in specific scientific literature and historical data. Understanding this unit is crucial for interpreting legacy documents and conducting comparative analyses in fluid dynamics research.

Converting dyn·s/cm² to SI units involves multiplying by 0.1, yielding the equivalent value in Pascal seconds (Pa·s).
