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 Millibar?
The millibar (symbol: mbar) is a non-SI unit of pressure equal to one-thousandth of a bar or exactly 100 pascals. It has been widely used in meteorology to report atmospheric pressure and remains common in weather forecasts, although the SI unit hectopascal has largely replaced it. One millibar is numerically equal to one hectopascal. More information is available in the bar (unit) reference.
One millibar is equal to 100 pascals, 1 hectopascal, 0.1 kilopascal, 0.001 bar, and 0.000986923 standard atmosphere. The millibar remains a familiar unit for atmospheric pressure worldwide.
What is Pound Force Per Square Foot?
The pound force per square foot (symbol: psf) is a non-SI unit of pressure that represents the pressure exerted by one pound-force distributed over an area of one square foot. It is commonly used in civil engineering, structural design, HVAC systems, and building codes in the United States to specify wind loads, floor loads, and air pressure. The unit is based on the pound per square foot.
One pound force per square foot is equal to 47.8803 pascals, 0.0478803 kilopascals, 0.000478803 bar, 0.00694444 pounds per square inch, and 0.000472555 standard atmosphere. The psf remains a standard unit for structural and environmental load calculations.
