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 Meter of Head?
The meter of head (symbol: mH₂O or m head) is a non-SI unit of pressure that represents the pressure generated by a one-meter column of water under standard gravity. It is widely used in hydraulics, water supply systems, pumps, irrigation, and fluid engineering to describe pressure and pump performance. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the meter of head remains popular because it directly relates pressure to water height. It is based on the principles of hydraulic head.
One meter of head is equal to 9,806.65 pascals, 9.80665 kilopascals, 0.0980665 bar, 1.42233 pounds per square inch, and 3.28084 feet of water. The meter of head is commonly used to specify pump capacity and water system pressure.
