The centistokes (cSt) is a subunit of the Stokes, where 1 cSt equals 0.01 St or 1 mm²/s. It is extensively used in the automotive and lubrication industries to specify the viscosity grades of oils and fuels.
Measuring viscosity in cSt allows for precise control over fluid properties, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of mechanical systems. It is a critical parameter in formulating lubricants that meet specific operational requirements.
Named after Sir George Gabriel Stokes, the Stokes (St) is a CGS unit of kinematic viscosity, equivalent to 1 cm²/s. It is widely used in fields like meteorology and oceanography to describe the flow characteristics of air and water masses.
Understanding the Stokes unit is essential for modeling natural phenomena such as ocean currents and atmospheric circulation. It provides a standardized measure for comparing the viscosity of different fluids under varying conditions.
