Pa·stokg/(m·s)
Convert pascal-seconds (Pa·s) to kilograms per metre-second (kg/(m·s)).
Factor1 Pa·s = 1 kg/(m·s)
Converter
Pa·s
Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7
Result

Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
kg/(m·s) = Pa·s × 1
Multiply any value in pascal-seconds by 1 to obtain the value in kilograms per metre-second.
Worked example
Convert 1 Pa·s to kg/(m·s).
- 01Start with 1 Pa·s.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 1 = 1 kg/(m·s).
Result1 Pa·s = 1 kg/(m·s)

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from Pa·s to kg/(m·s)?
1 Pa·s equals 1 kg/(m·s). To convert, multiply the value in pascal-seconds by 1.
How do I convert 1 Pa·s to kg/(m·s)?
1 Pa·s = 1 kg/(m·s). For any value, multiply by 1.
How do I convert kg/(m·s) back to Pa·s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1. So 1 kg/(m·s) = 1 Pa·s.
When would I need to convert pascal-second to kilogram per metre-second?
Dynamic viscosity conversions between Pa·s and kg/(m·s) are common in fluid characterisation, pump and control valve sizing, pipeline pressure-drop calculations, and lubrication engineering. Centipoise (cP) and mPa·s are the most widely used units in process datasheets; Pa·s is required for most simulation tools.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
