What are Poise and Slug/foot/second

Definition of Poise

Poise is a unit of dynamic viscosity in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. Named after the French physician and physiologist Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille, it quantifies the internal resistance of a fluid to flow. One poise is defined as one dyne-second per square centimeter, which equates to the viscosity of a fluid in which a tangential force of one dyne per square centimeter maintains a velocity difference of one centimeter per second between two parallel planes one centimeter apart.

Definition of Slug/foot/second

Slug per foot per second is a unit of dynamic viscosity primarily used in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system of units. It represents the internal friction of a fluid, and its resistance to flow under an applied force. In this unit, 'slug' is the FPS unit of mass, 'foot' is the unit of length, and 'second' is the unit of time. This measurement is pivotal in engineering and physics for understanding fluid dynamics in systems where the FPS unit system is prevalent.
