- Rounding
- Displayed to 6 decimal places by default, trimmed for readability. Use Detailed or Scientific for more precision.
- Assumption
- Kinematic viscosity measures momentum diffusion and equals dynamic viscosity divided by density. Values depend strongly on temperature. Saybolt seconds are excluded because they are instrument readings that require empirical formulas rather than a single linear conversion factor.
