  2. Bar (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The kilobar, equivalent to 100 MPa, is commonly used in geological systems, particularly in experimental petrology. The abbreviations "bar(a)" and "bara" are sometimes used to indicate absolute pressures, and "bar(g)" and "barg" for gauge pressures. The usage is deprecated but still prevails in the oil industry (often by capitalized "BarG" and ...

  4. Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure

    Atmospheric pressure, also known as air pressure or barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars, [1] 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi.

  5. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    The offset value is given as a subscript, e.g., = MPa or = MPa. [15] For most practical engineering uses, is multiplied by a factor of safety to obtain a lower value of the offset yield point. High strength steel and aluminum alloys do not exhibit a yield point, so this offset yield point is used on these materials.

  7. Duplex stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_Stainless_Steel

    For example, a Type 304 stainless steel has a 0.2% proof strength in the region of 280 MPa (41 ksi), a 22%Cr duplex stainless steel a minimum 0.2% proof strength of some 450 MPa (65 ksi) and a superduplex grade a minimum of 550 MPa (80 ksi).

  8. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    where ^ is the fugacity coefficient of species , is the mole fraction of the same species, is the reactor pressure, and is standard pressure, typically 1 bar (0.10 MPa). Economically, reactor pressurization is expensive: pipes, valves, and reaction vessels need to be strong enough, and safety considerations affect operating at 20 MPa.

  9. High-strength low-alloy steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-strength_low-alloy_steel

    It has a yield strength up to 80,000 psi (550 MPa) but costs only 24% more than A36 steel (36,000 psi (250 MPa)). One of the disadvantages of this steel is that it is 30 to 40% less ductile . In the U.S., these steels are dictated by the ASTM standards A1008/A1008M and A1011/A1011M for sheet metal and A656/A656M for plates.
