Poise to Pascal seconds

1 poise = 0.1 pascal seconds · 1 Pa·s = 10 P

1 poise = 0.1 pascal seconds

How it’s calculated

Pa·s = P × 0.1

  • Multiply the value in poise by 0.1.
  • To go back, divide by 0.1 (or multiply by 10).
  • 1 P = 0.1 Pa·s · 1 Pa·s = 10 P

  1. Find the conversion factor

    By definition 1 Pa·s = 10 P. Source: NIST SP 811 / Handbook 44; BIPM SI Brochure (9th ed.).

  2. Multiply by the factor written as a fraction

    Put P in the denominator so it cancels, leaving Pa·s.

  3. Calculate (unrounded)

  4. Round the answer

    Rounded to 5 significant figures.

Answer: 0.1 Pa·s
