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 Feet of water?
The foot of water (symbol: ftH₂O or ftH2O) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-foot column of water under standard gravity. It is commonly used in plumbing, HVAC systems, fluid mechanics, and water distribution networks to measure relatively low pressures. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the foot of water remains widely used in engineering applications involving liquids. More information can be found in the water column reference.
One foot of water is equal to 2,989.07 pascals, 12 inches of water, 0.0298907 bar, 0.433527 psi, and 0.029503 standard atmosphere. The foot of water is widely used for measuring hydrostatic and fluid system pressures.
What is Megapascal?
The megapascal (symbol: MPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one million (106) pascals. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in civil engineering, mechanical engineering, hydraulics, and material science. The megapascal is commonly used to express concrete compressive strength, steel yield strength, hydraulic pressure, and industrial operating pressures. It uses the SI prefix mega, representing a factor of one million.
One megapascal is equal to 1,000,000 pascals, 1,000 kilopascals, 0.001 gigapascal, 10 bars, and 145.038 pounds per square inch. The megapascal is the preferred SI unit for reporting engineering pressures and material properties.
