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 Hectopascal?
The hectopascal (symbol: hPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to 100 pascals. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in meteorology and weather forecasting, where atmospheric pressure is commonly reported in hectopascals. The hectopascal uses the SI prefix hecto, representing a factor of one hundred.
One hectopascal is equal to 100 pascals, 0.1 kilopascal, 0.001 bar, 1 millibar, and 0.000986923 standard atmosphere. The hectopascal is the international standard unit for reporting atmospheric pressure.
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.
