Pressure Unit Definitions

Pascal (Pa)
SI unit of pressure, equal to one newton per square meter.
Kilopascal (kPa)
1,000 pascals. Common in engineering and scientific applications.
Megapascal (MPa)
1,000,000 pascals. Used for high-pressure systems.
Bar (bar)
Equal to 100,000 pascals. Common in meteorology and industry.
PSI (psi)
Pounds per square inch. Imperial unit common in the US.
Atmosphere (atm)
Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level.
mmHg
Millimeters of mercury. Used in medicine and meteorology.
Torr (torr)
Nearly equal to 1 mmHg. Named after Evangelista Torricelli.
inH₂O
Inches of water column. Used for low pressure measurements.

Practical Applications

HVAC Systems: Often use inches of water column (inH₂O) to measure static pressure in ductwork. 1 inH₂O ≈ 0.0361 psi.

Hydraulic Systems: Typically measured in PSI or bar. 1 bar ≈ 14.5 psi.

Tire Pressure: Usually measured in PSI (cars) or kPa (some international standards).

Medical Applications: Blood pressure is measured in mmHg, with normal being around 120/80 mmHg.

Scuba Diving: Tank pressure is measured in PSI or bar, with full tanks around 3000 psi (207 bar).

Key Conversion Formulas

1 atm = 101325 Pa = 1.01325 bar = 14.6959 psi = 760 mmHg = 760 torr

1 bar = 100000 Pa = 0.986923 atm = 14.5038 psi

1 psi = 6894.76 Pa = 0.0689476 bar = 51.7149 torr

1 mmHg = 1 torr = 133.322 Pa

1 inH₂O = 249.082 Pa (at 4°C)
