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 Kilopascal?
The kilopascal (symbol: kPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one thousand (103) pascals. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in engineering, meteorology, automotive systems, construction, and scientific research. The kilopascal provides a practical scale for measuring atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and fluid pressure. It uses the SI prefix kilo, representing a factor of one thousand.
One kilopascal is equal to 1,000 pascals, 0.01 bar, 0.001 megapascal, 0.145038 psi, and 0.00986923 standard atmosphere. The kilopascal is the preferred SI unit for many everyday and industrial pressure measurements.
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.
