How to Convert Pound-force second/sq. inch to Slug/foot/second

Converting Pound-force second/sq. inch (reyn) to Slug/foot/second (slug/(ft·s)) is a core calculation in Dynamic Viscosity, which quantifies a fluid's internal tangential resistance to shear deformation and laminar flow. This calculation navigates the boundary between the International Metric System (SI) and British Imperial / US Customary engineering standards. In contemporary metrology, Imperial units are defined in terms of exact SI standards via international agreements—notably NIST SP 811 and the 1959 International Yard and Pound Agreement. Exactly 1 Pound-force second/sq. inch equals 143.999991 Slug/foot/second, while 1 slug/(ft·s) equals 0.00694444 reyn.

Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (pascal second (Pa·s)) without arbitrary rounding:

V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)

1. Source SI Bridge (k_source):1 reyn = 6894.757 pascal second (Pa·s)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 slug/(ft·s) = 47.88026 pascal second (Pa·s)

Step-by-step substitution for Pound-force second/sq. inch → Slug/foot/second:V(slug/(ft·s)) = V(reyn) × ( 6894.757 / 47.88026 ) = V(reyn) × 143.999991

Mathematical FormulaValue in Slug/foot/second = Value in Pound-force second/sq. inch × 143.99999081Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.

Worked Example

For an engineering input of 75 reyn, applying the conversion factor yields exactly 10799.999311 slug/(ft·s). At larger operational scale, 2500 Pound-force second/sq. inch corresponds to 359999.977026 slug/(ft·s).

Inverse check: 1 slug/(ft·s) = 0.00694444 reyn.
