  2. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

    The converse is pound per square inch gauge (psig), indicating that the pressure is relative to atmospheric pressure. For example, a bicycle tire pumped up to 65 psig in a local atmospheric pressure at sea level (14.7 psi) will have a pressure of 79.7 psia (14.7 psi + 65 psi).

  3. Bar (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    [1] [2] By the barometric formula, 1 bar is roughly the atmospheric pressure on Earth at an altitude of 111 metres at 15 °C. The bar and the millibar were introduced by the Norwegian meteorologist Vilhelm Bjerknes, who was a founder of the modern practice of weather forecasting, with the bar defined as one mega dyne per square centimeter. [3]

    Since 1982, STP is defined as a temperature of 273.15 K (0 °C, 32 °F) and an absolute pressure of 100 kPa (1 bar). Conversions between each volume flow metric are calculated using the following formulas: Prior to 1982,

    A msw is defined as 0.1 bar (= 10,000 Pa), is not the same as a linear metre of depth. 33.066 fsw = 1 atm [citation needed] (1 atm = 101,325 Pa / 33.066 = 3,064.326 Pa). The pressure conversion from msw to fsw is different from the length conversion: 10 msw = 32.6336 fsw, while 10 m = 32.8083 ft. [citation needed]

  6. Orders of magnitude (pressure) - Wikipedia

    10 kPa 1.5 psi Pressure increase per meter of a water column [26]: 10 kPa 1.5 psi Decrease in air pressure when going from Earth sea level to 1000 m elevation [citation needed]

    With this conversion from SCCM to kg/s, one can then use available unit calculators to convert kg/s to other units, [5] such as g/s of the CGS system, or slug/s. Based on the above formulas, the relationship between SCCM and molar flow rate in kmol/s is given by

  8. Standard temperature and pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_temperature_and...

    For example, IUPAC has, since 1982, defined standard reference conditions as being 0 °C and 100 kPa (1 bar), in contrast to its old standard of 0 °C and 101.325 kPa (1 atm). [2] The new value is the mean atmospheric pressure at an altitude of about 112 metres, which is closer to the worldwide median altitude of human habitation (194 m).

  9. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    Convert mmHg to SI units as follows: 1 mmHg = 0.133 32 kPa. Hence the normal blood pressure in SI units is less than 16.0 kPa SBP and less than 10.7 kPa DBP. These values are similar to the pressure of water column of average human height; so pressure has to be measured on arm roughly at the level of the heart.
