运动粘度的换算粘度常与密度ρ以μ/ρ的组合形式出现,故定义v=μ/ρ,由于v的单位米2/秒中只有运动学单位,故称运动粘度。运动粘度表示液体在重力作用下流动时内磨擦力的量度,其值为相同温度下的动力粘度与其密度之比,在国际单位制中以米2/秒表示。习惯用厘斯(cSt)为单位。1厘斯=10-6米2/秒=1毫米2/秒。--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
