1 m²/s = 10000 St
1 St = 0.0001 m²/s
To convert square meter per second to stokes, multiply by 10000.
To convert stokes to square meter per second, multiply by 0.0001.
Example: convert 10 m²/s to St
10 × 10000 = 100000 St
Short background on the units used in this conversion.
The square meter per second (m²/s) is the SI unit of kinematic viscosity — dynamic viscosity divided by density.
Square meters per second appear in fluid dynamics, CFD, and the definition of the stokes and centistokes units.
Stokes (St) equals 10⁻⁴ m²/s — the CGS unit of kinematic viscosity. One stokes equals 100 centistokes.
Stokes appears in rheology literature and older engineering references alongside the centistokes subunit.
St = m²/s × 10,000m²/s = St × 0.0001, using the same exact factors as this converter.Jump to any viscosity-kinematic conversion starting from square meter per second — including the reverse direction and every other unit in our dataset.
