Convert Square Millimeters per Second to ft²/s

Formula

ft²/s = mm²/s × 0.00001076391041671

or ft²/s = mm²/s ÷ 92903.04

Derivation from SI units:

• 1 mm²/s = 10⁻⁶ m²/s = 1 cSt
• 1 ft²/s = 0.09290304 m²/s (exact)
• 1 mm²/s = 0.000001 m²/s ÷ 0.09290304 m²/s per ft²/s = 0.00001076391041671 ft²/s

Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Square Millimeter per Second definition: square millimeter per second; Square Foot per Second definition: square foot per second.

Worked examples

1. A reading of 32 mm²/s converts to 0.0003444451333 ft²/s.
   32 mm²/s × 0.00001076391042 = 0.0003444451333 ft²/s
2. A value of 220 mm²/s is 0.002368060292 ft²/s.
   220 mm²/s × 0.00001076391042 = 0.002368060292 ft²/s

Where it's used

Square Millimeters per Second are used for lubricant ISO VG grades (VG 32, 46, 68 …), while square feet per second appear in US hydraulics and pipe-flow calculations. Both measure kinematic viscosity (dynamic viscosity divided by density), so the conversion is a fixed factor.
