‘To convert kinematic viscosity from one set of units to. Asan example, suppose a given kinematic viscosity
another, locate the given set of units in the left hand 0f 0.5 square foot/second is to be converted to
column and multiply the numerical value by the centistokes. By referring to the table, we find the
factor shown horizontally to the right under the set conversion factor to be 92,900. Then, 0.5 (sq ft/sec)
of units desired. times 92,900 = 46,450 centistokes.
