pound/foot/hour to poise
Please provide values below to convert pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h] to poise [P], or change ↔.
pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h]
Definition: A viscosity unit that uses pounds of force per foot per hour, useful for very slow-moving fluids.
Historyandorigin: An extension of the imperial system, it was used in very specific cases where slow flow rates were encountered.
CurrentUse: Now mostly obsolete, it is occasionally used in specialized applications that require slow fluid movement to be quantified.
funfact: This unit might seem rare, but it once helped engineers measure extremely slow-moving fluids in industries like oil and gas!
poise [P]
Definition: A poise is a unit of dynamic viscosity that measures the internal friction of a fluid. One poise is equivalent to one dyne·second per square centimeter.
Historyandorigin: Named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille, a French physicist who studied the flow of liquids, the poise was widely used in medical and laboratory settings.
CurrentUse: Though somewhat replaced by the pascal second, it can still be found in older scientific and engineering literature.
funfact: A poise is a relatively large unit of viscosity—most fluids have viscosities much smaller than one poise!

How to Convert pound/foot/hour to poise
1 pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h] = 0.0000535739 poise [P]
1 poise [P] = 18665.804864 pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h]
we use cross multiplication method
pound/foot/hour [lb/ft·h] → poise [P]
1 → 0.0000535739
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0000535739=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0000803609
