  "term": "Kinematic viscosity",
  "field": "Environment",
  "definition": "1. The ratio of dynamic viscosity to mass density. Kinematic viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to gravity flow--the lower the kinematic viscosity, the easier and faster the fluid will flow.\n\n2. The ratio of dynamic viscosity to mass density. It is obtained by dividing dynamic viscosity by the fluid density. Kinematic viscosity is typically reported in units of centistokes (cSt).",
