  2. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_per_square_inch

    The kilopound per square inch (ksi) is a scaled unit derived from psi, equivalent to a thousand psi (1000 lbf/in 2). ksi are not widely used for gas pressures. They are mostly used in materials science, where the tensile strength of a material is measured as a large number of psi. [4] The conversion in SI units is 1 ksi = 6.895 MPa, or 1 MPa ...

  3. Kilogram-force per square centimetre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram-force_per_square...

    14.22334 psi A kilogram-force per square centimetre (kgf/cm 2 ), often just kilogram per square centimetre (kg/cm 2 ), or kilopond per square centimetre (kp/cm 2 ) is a deprecated unit of pressure using metric units.

  4. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    The inductance of a closed circuit that produces one volt of electromotive force when the current in the circuit varies at a uniform rate of one ampere per second. [ 32 ] = 1 H = 1 Wb/A = 1 kg⋅m 2 /(A⋅s) 2

    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] +13 kPa +1.9 psi High air pressure for human lung, measured for trumpet player making staccato high notes [48] < +16 kPa +2.3 psi

  6. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    Certain test methods specify or limit the loading rate to a certain value or a range, whereas other methods request data based on test procedures run at very low rates. [17] Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is defined as having a compressive strength over 150 MPa. [18]

  7. Standard cubic foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_cubic_foot

    It is similarly defined as the quantity of gas contained in a cubic meter at a temperature of 15 °C (288.150 K; 59.000 °F) and a pressure of 101.325 kilopascals (1.0000 atm; 14.696 psi). [ 1 ] Converting volume units between the standard cubic foot and the standard cubic meter is not exact, as the base temperature and pressure used are ...

  8. Ambient pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_pressure

    Ambient pressure may in other circumstances be measured in pounds per square inch (psi) or in standard atmospheres (atm). The ambient pressure at sea level is approximately one atmosphere, which is equal to 1.01325 bars (14.6959 psi), which is close enough for bar and atm to be used interchangeably in many applications.

  9. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The pascal (Pa) or kilopascal (kPa) as a unit of pressure measurement is widely used throughout the world and has largely replaced the pounds per square inch (psi) unit, except in some countries that still use the imperial measurement system or the US customary system, including the United States.
