Poise Named after the physicist Poiseuille this is the CGS derived unit of dynamic viscosity of a fluid. When a force of 1 dyne maintains unit rate of shear of a film of unit thickness between surfaces of unit area dyne sec cm-2 | Conversions | | | | | | | | 1 poise | = | 0.10 kg m-1s-1 | | 1 poise | = | 0.1 N s m-2 | | 1 poise | = | 0.0020885 lbf s ft-2 | | 1 poise | = | 0.0671969 Poundal s ft-2 | | 1 poise | = | 0.0000145 reyn | | 1 poise | = | 0.0020885 slugs ft-1s-1 | | 1 poise | = | 100 centipoise | | 1 poise | = | 1.0 dyne s cm-2 |
