Viscosity of Water
The unit centiPoise = 0.001 Pa s and is is sometimes written mPa s. The kinematic viscosity is the dynamic viscosity divided by the density of the fluid. In cgs units the unit is called the centistoke.
The viscosity of water decreases smoothly from the freezing point while the density remains essentially constant except for the small maximum in density near 4°C .
