Stokes compared with Square feet per second

One ft²/s is 929 times as large as one St, so your number gets smaller when you convert stokes to square feet per second and bigger when you convert back. If the answer is not smaller than what you typed, you multiplied instead of dividing.

About stokes and square feet per second

Stokes (St): The stokes, exactly 1×10⁻⁴ m²/s. Square foot per second (ft²/s): Square foot per second, exactly 0.09290304 m²/s.

How to calculate Stokes to Square feet per second step by step

  1. Enter the value in St (the starting unit).
  2. Multiply by 0.001076391, because 1 St = 0.001076391 ft²/s.
  3. The product is the value in ft²/s. To go back, divide by 0.001076391 or multiply by 929.0304.
