In the CGS system, the coefficient of viscosity is measured in poise (g cm^-1 s^-1).

Viscosity coefficient (eta) is defined via Newton's law of viscous flow: F = eta * A * (du/dz), where F is the force needed to maintain a velocity gradient du/dz over area A.

Dimensionally, eta has units of mass x length^-1 x time^-1. …
