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.
The square centimeter per second (cm²/s) is a CGS (centimeter-gram-second) unit of kinematic viscosity. It is commonly used in laboratory settings and smaller-scale applications where precise measurements are necessary.
One cm²/s equals 0.0001 m²/s, making it suitable for experiments and processes involving low-viscosity fluids. Industries such as pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals often utilize this unit for quality control and research purposes.
