  • Illustration of Division:
  • ksi = cmhg ÷ 5171.493257

What is Pressure?

Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to a surface per unit area: P = F / A. The SI unit is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (1 Pa = 1 N/m²). Practical applications use larger units: the bar (1 bar = 100,000 Pa, close to standard atmospheric pressure), atmosphere (atm) (1 atm = 101,325 Pa), and psi (pounds per square inch, used in the US for tire and gas pressures). Blood pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury), also called torr.

What is Centimeter of Mercury?

The centimeter of mercury (symbol: cmHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of mercury under standard gravity. It has traditionally been used in scientific instruments, laboratory measurements, and vacuum systems. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the centimeter of mercury is still encountered in specialized applications. It is closely related to the Torr and other mercury-based pressure units.

One centimeter of mercury is equal to 1,333.22 pascals, 10 millimeters of mercury, 0.0133322 bar, 0.193367 psi, and 0.0131579 standard atmosphere. This unit remains useful for comparing pressure values in traditional measurement systems.

What is Kip Force Per Square Inch?

The kip force per square inch (symbol: ksi) is a non-SI unit of pressure commonly used in structural engineering and material science. It represents the pressure exerted by one kip (1,000 pounds-force) acting on an area of one square inch. The ksi is widely used to express the yield strength, tensile strength, and compressive strength of steel, concrete, and other engineering materials.

One kip force per square inch is equal to 6,894,757.29 pascals, 6.89476 megapascals, 68.9476 bars, 1,000 pounds per square inch, and 68.0459 standard atmospheres. The ksi is the standard unit for reporting material strength in many engineering design codes.

Centimeter of Mercury to Kip Force Per Square Inch Examples

  • Example 1:

    Convert 0.7 Centimeter of Mercury pressure to Kip Force Per Square Inch unit.

    Solution:

    We know that one Centimeter of Mercury is equivalent to 0.00019336774704595059 Kip Force Per Square Inch.

    Therefore,

    0.7 cmHg = 0.7 x 0.00019336774704595059 ksi.

    0.7 cmHg = 0.00013535742293216542 ksi.

    Hence, 0.7 Centimeter of Mercury is approximately equal to 0.00013535742293216542 Kip Force Per Square Inch.

  • Example 2:

    Convert 7 Centimeter of Mercury pressure to Kip Force Per Square Inch unit.

    Solution:

    We know that one Centimeter of Mercury is equivalent to 0.00019336774704595059 Kip Force Per Square Inch.

    Therefore,

    7 cmHg = 7 x 0.00019336774704595059 ksi.

    7 cmHg = 0.001353574229 ksi.

    Hence, 7 Centimeter of Mercury is approximately equal to 0.001353574229 Kip Force Per Square Inch.
