Kinematic Viscosity in Specific Gravity and Density Formulas

The Kinematic Viscosity refers to the ratio of dynamic viscosity to the density of the fluid. And is denoted by ν. Kinematic Viscosity is usually measured using the Stokes for Kinematic Viscosity. Note that the value of Kinematic Viscosity is always positive.
