Stokes (Unit)The stokes is the cgs physical unit for kinematic viscosity. It is abbreviated S or St, and was named after George Gabriel Stokes. It is sometimes expressed in terms of centistokes (cS or cSt). In U.S. usage stoke is sometimes used as the singular form; the plural form is always stokes. The SI physical unit of kinematic viscosity is the m2/s. 1 stokes = 100 centistokes = 1 cm2/s = 0.0001 m2/s See also
