N°9 – The units of pressure training (A level)

Remember:
1 [bar] = 10 [mH2O] « metres of water » (32.8 ftH2O) « feet of water » = 100,000 [Pa]

1 [kPa] = 1,000 [Pa]

1 [mbar] (millibar) = 1/1,000 de [bar]

1 [bar] = 1,000 [mbar]

Question  

Convert the following required units.

Question  

Convert the following required units.

2 old pressure units also correspond approx. to the [bar]:
   – 1 atmosphere: 1 [atm] = 1 [bar]
   – 1 [kgf/cm2] called the “kilo of pressure” = 1 [bar]

Question  

Convert the following required units.

Note: To remember 10 to the power of 10:
[bar] —- [mH2O] (ftH2O) —- [kPa] —- [mbar] (millibar) —- [daPa] (decaPascal) —– [Pa]
