Convert Square feet per second to Square centimetres per second
Convert Square feet per second (ft²/s) to Square centimetres per second (cm²/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
cm²/s = ft²/s × 929.0304
About Square feet per second
The square foot per second (ft²/s) equals 0.09290304 m²/s, the imperial base unit for thermal diffusivity analogous to m²/s. It is used in US aerospace engineering and combustion research for highly conductive materials and high-temperature plasmas. Diamond, the most thermally diffusive solid at ≈7 cm²/s, converts to ≈0.0075 ft²/s; silver to ≈0.00167 ft²/s. 1 ft²/s = 3600 ft²/h = 0.09290304 m²/s.
About Square centimetres per second
The square centimetre per second (cm²/s) equals 1 × 10⁻⁴ m²/s and is the CGS unit for thermal diffusivity, sometimes called the stokes by analogy with kinematic viscosity. Pre-SI thermophysics literature and many older reference databases list values in cm²/s: iron ≈0.18 cm²/s; aluminium ≈0.84 cm²/s; water ≈1.4 × 10⁻³ cm²/s. 1 cm²/s = 1 × 10⁻⁴ m²/s.
