centistokes to square foot per second
Convert centistokes (cSt) to square foot per second (ft²/s). Use an editable kinematic viscosity converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 cSt = 0.00001076391042 ft²/s
Conversion formula
One centistokes equals 0.00001076391042 square foot per second. Multiply your value in centistokes by this factor to get square foot per second. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 centistokes:5 × 0.00001076391042 = 0.00005381955208 ft²/s

About these measurements
Kinematic viscosity is dynamic viscosity divided by density.
The base reference used here is the square meter per second. One centistokes is 0.000001 base units; one square foot per second is 0.09290304 base units.
Important distinctions
Compound units must match the quantity and dimension. Temperature intervals use size factors rather than temperature offsets. Calorie and BTU entries use the explicit definitions shown.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert cSt to ft²/s?
Multiply the quantity in cSt by 0.00001076391042. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the square foot per second to centistokes converter.
