Centimeter of water to Barye Conversion Formula

One Centimeter of water is equal to 980.665 Barye.

Formula: 1 cmH2O = 980.665 Ba

By using this conversion factor, you can easily convert any pressure measurement from centimeter of water unit to barye unit with precision.

How to Convert cmH2O to Ba?

Converting from cmH2O to Ba is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to ensure accurate conversions from centimeter of water to barye:

  • Select the Centimeter of water Value: Start by determining the centimeter of water (cmH2O) value you want to convert into barye (Ba). This is your starting point.
  • Multiply by the Conversion Factor: To calculate centimeter of water to equivalent barye amount, multiply the selected cmH2O value by 980.665.
  • Illustration of Multiplication:
  • 1 cmH2O = 980.665 Ba
  • 10 cmH2O = 9806.65 Ba
  • 100 cmH2O = 98066.5 Ba
  • Find the Conversion Result: The result of this multiplication is your converted value in barye unit. This represents the same pressure but in a different unit.
  • Save Your Barye Value: After converting, remember to save the result. This value represents the pressure you initially measured, now expressed in baryes.
  • Alternative Method – Division: If you prefer not to multiply, you can achieve the same conversion by dividing the centimeter of water value by 0.001019716213. This alternative method also gives you the correct pressure in baryes.
  • Illustration of Division:
  • Ba = cmh2o ÷ 0.001019716213

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 water?

The centimeter of water (symbol: cmH₂O) is a non-SI unit of pressure defined as the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of water under standard gravity. It is widely used in medical equipment, ventilation systems, HVAC engineering, and fluid mechanics because it provides a practical scale for measuring relatively low pressures. The unit is derived from the hydrostatic pressure of water and is described alongside other pressure units in the centimeter of water reference.

One centimeter of water is equal to 98.0665 pascals, 10 millimeters of water, 0.000980665 bar, 0.0142233 psi, and 0.000967841 standard atmosphere. The centimeter of water is commonly used whenever accurate measurement of low pressure is required.

What is Barye?

The barye (symbol: Ba) is a CGS unit of pressure equal to one dyne per square centimeter or exactly 0.1 pascal. It was widely used in the centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system before the widespread adoption of SI units. Today, the barye is mainly encountered in historical scientific literature and older engineering references. It is part of the CGS system of units.

One barye is equal to 0.1 pascal, 1 dyne per square centimeter, 0.000001 bar, 0.0001 kilopascal, and 9.86923×10-7 standard atmosphere. Although obsolete in most applications, the barye remains an important historical pressure unit.

Some Centimeter of water to Barye conversions

Centimeter of water to Barye Examples

  • Example 1:

    Convert 0.7 Centimeter of water pressure to Barye unit.

    Solution:

    We know that one Centimeter of water is equivalent to 980.665 Barye.

    Therefore,

    0.7 cmH2O = 0.7 x 980.665 Ba.

    0.7 cmH2O = 686.4655 Ba.

    Hence, 0.7 Centimeter of water is approximately equal to 686.4655 Barye.

  • Example 2:

    Convert 4 Centimeter of water pressure to Barye unit.

    Solution:

    We know that one Centimeter of water is equivalent to 980.665 Barye.

    Therefore,

    4 cmH2O = 4 x 980.665 Ba.

    4 cmH2O = 3922.66 Ba.

    Hence, 4 Centimeter of water is approximately equal to 3922.66 Barye.
