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 Millimeter of Mercury?
The millimeter of mercury (symbol: mmHg) is a non-SI unit of pressure based on the pressure exerted by a one-millimeter column of mercury under standard gravity. It is widely used in medicine, physiology, meteorology, and vacuum technology. Blood pressure is commonly measured in millimeters of mercury, making it one of the world's best-known pressure units. The unit is closely related to the Torr.
One millimeter of mercury is equal to 133.322 pascals, 0.133322 kilopascals, 0.00133322 bar, 0.0193368 pounds per square inch, and 0.00131579 standard atmosphere. The millimeter of mercury remains the standard unit for blood pressure measurements.
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.
