About Centimetre squared
The centimetre squared (cm²) equals 10⁻⁴ m² ≈ 1.013 × 10¹¹ D, present in unit-conversion tables as a logical extension of the SI area series. It is effectively beyond the range of any natural porous medium and arises only in theoretical packed-bed studies or large-aperture industrial filter specifications. 1 cm² = 10⁴ mm² = 10⁻⁴ m².
About Inch squared
The square inch (in²) equals (0.0254 m)² = 6.4516 × 10⁻⁴ m² ≈ 6.54 × 10¹¹ D. An imperial area unit included for unit-conversion completeness; it appears in some US oil-country tubular goods and industrial filter-media specifications where flow cross-sections are stated in square inches. 1 in² ≈ 6.452 cm² = 6.4516 × 10⁻⁴ m².
