How to convert units in general

Conversions can be done either with the "->" conversion operator or with the equivalent "convert" function. The function has three parameters: a quantity, a unit to convert from and a unit to convert to. Likewise the conversion operator uses three values: the quantity and unit to convert from are placed on the left side of the operator while the unit to convert to goes to the right side.

Viscosity Units

The basic unit of viscosity is the poiseuille. All units of viscosity are expressed in terms of this base unit and so measurements can be converted from any one of the following units to any other.

DL TITLE="Viscosity">
poise
CGS unit: 0.1 poiseuille
poiseuille
Basic unit of viscosity (pascal second): 1 poiseuille
reyn
lbf second / inch2: 6.89475729316836 poiseuille

Sample Conversions of Viscosity Units

Convert poiseuille to poise

10 poiseuille -> poise = 100

convert(10; poiseuille; poise) = 100

Convert poiseuille to reyn

10 poiseuille -> reyn = 1.4503774

convert(10; poiseuille; reyn) = 1.4503774

Convert poise to poiseuille

10 poise -> poiseuille = 1

convert(10; poise; poiseuille) = 1

Convert reyn to poiseuille

10 reyn -> poiseuille = 68.947573

convert(10; reyn; poiseuille) = 68.947573

Convert reyn to poise

10 reyn -> poise = 689.47573

convert(10; reyn; poise) = 689.47573

Convert poise to reyn

10 poise -> reyn = 0.1450377

convert(10; poise; reyn) = 0.1450377
