Inputs:

input power (P)		watt foot-pound/second horsepower joule/second kilojoule/second kilowatt newton-meter/second
velocity gradient (G)		second^-1 day^-1 year^-1
dynamic viscosity (u)		newton-second/meter^2 dyne-second/centimeter^2 pascal-second kilogram/meter-second poise pound(f)-second/foot^2 poundal-second/foot^2 slug/foot-second

Conversions:

P	=	0		=	0	newton-meter/second
G	=	0		=	0	second^-1
u	=	0		=	0	newton-second/meter^2
