    The picometre is one thousand femtometres, one thousandth of a nanometre (⁠ 1 / 1000 ⁠ nm), one millionth of a micrometre (also known as a micron), one billionth of a millimetre, and one trillionth of a metre. [2] The symbol μμ was once used for it. [3] It is also one hundredth of an ångström, an internationally known (but non-SI) unit ...

  6. Darcy (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_(unit)

    The darcy is referenced to a mixture of unit systems. A medium with a permeability of 1 darcy permits a flow of 1 cm 3 /s of a fluid with viscosity 1 cP (1 mPa·s) under a pressure gradient of 1 atm/cm acting across an area of 1 cm 2. Typical values of permeability range as high as 100,000 darcys for gravel, to less than 0.01 microdarcy for ...
