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

Converting Slug/foot/second (slug/(ft·s)) to Pound-force second/sq. inch (reyn) 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 Slug/foot/second equals 0.00694444 Pound-force second/sq. inch, while 1 reyn equals 143.999991 slug/(ft·s).

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 slug/(ft·s) = 47.88026 pascal second (Pa·s)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 reyn = 6894.757 pascal second (Pa·s)

Step-by-step substitution for Slug/foot/second → Pound-force second/sq. inch:V(reyn) = V(slug/(ft·s)) × ( 47.88026 / 6894.757 ) = V(slug/(ft·s)) × 0.00694444

Mathematical FormulaValue in Pound-force second/sq. inch = Value in Slug/foot/second × 0.0069444449Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.

Worked Example

To convert 12 Slug/foot/second (slug/(ft·s)) to Pound-force second/sq. inch (reyn): multiply 12 by 0.00694444 to get 0.0833333 reyn. At an industrial engineering scale, 480 slug/(ft·s) converts to 3.333334 reyn.

Inverse check: 1 reyn = 143.999991 slug/(ft·s).
