Your details

Choose which quantity you want to calculate.
The force-based viscosity of the fluid (resistance to shear).
The mass per unit volume of the fluid at the operating temperature.
Kinematic viscosity = dynamic viscosity / density. Determines how fast a fluid flows under gravity.
Kinematic viscosity (cSt)
10cSt

Kinematic viscosity in centistokes (= mm2/s)

Kinematic viscosity (St)0.1St
Kinematic viscosity (m2/s)0.00001m2/s
Dynamic viscosity (P)0.1P
Dynamic viscosity (cP)10cP
Dynamic viscosity (Pa*s)0.01Pa*s
Density (g/cm3)1g/cm3
Dynamic viscosity (cP)10
Kinematic viscosity (cSt)10

Kinematic viscosity: 10.0000 cSt, Dynamic viscosity: 10.0000 cP

  • 10.0 cSt is typical of medium-weight lubricating oils and some hydraulic fluids.
  • The equivalent dynamic viscosity is 10.000 cP (= mPa*s).
  • Remember: kinematic viscosity depends on temperature. Always specify the temperature when reporting viscosity measurements.

Next stepTo look up the density of a specific fluid at a given temperature, consult a fluid properties database such as NIST WebBook or ASTM tables.
