Pound Force Second/Square Foot Converter


Pound force second per square foot is a unit of measurement for dynamic viscosity. By definition, if a fluid with a viscosity of one pound force second per square foot is placed between two plates, and the top plate is pushed parallel to the bottom plate with a shear stress of one pound force per square foot, it moves a distance equal to the thickness of the fluid layer between the plates in one second. The symbol for Pound Force Second/Square Foot is lbf·s/ft2.
Use this Pound Force Second/Square Foot converter to change values into other viscosity dynamic units. Enter a value, choose the target unit, and review the converted result without applying the conversion factor by hand.
It is useful when a measurement is recorded in Pound Force Second/Square Foot but a formula, specification, or comparison requires another viscosity dynamic unit. The available target units are listed below the example and conversion table.
Pound Force Second/Square Foot is one of the units available in this viscosity dynamic category. Use the result as a reference, and retain suitable precision when the value will be used in a technical or scientific calculation.
The calculator formats results for readability. Display rounding can affect the last digits, so check the original input and the shown precision before copying a result into a report or further formula.

What is Pound Force Second/Square Foot?
