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 Kilogram-force per Square Meter?
The kilogram-force per square meter (symbol: kgf/m²) is a non-SI unit of pressure representing the pressure exerted by one kilogram-force acting on an area of one square meter. It has been used in engineering, construction, and physics, although SI units such as the pascal are now preferred. The unit is based on the kilogram-force.
One kilogram-force per square meter is equal to 9.80665 pascals, 0.00980665 kilopascals, 0.0000980665 bar, 0.00142233 psi, and 0.0000967841 standard atmosphere. It is mainly found in older engineering references.
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.
