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 Water?
The millimeter of water (symbol: mmH₂O or mmH2O) is a non-SI unit of pressure defined as the pressure exerted by a one-millimeter column of water under standard gravity. It is commonly used in ventilation systems, clean rooms, HVAC engineering, and laboratory instruments to measure small pressure differences. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the millimeter of water remains a practical unit for low-pressure applications. It is based on the concept of a water column.
One millimeter of water is equal to 9.80665 pascals, 0.1 centimeter of water, 0.0000980665 bar, 0.00142233 pounds per square inch, and 0.00980665 kilopascal. The millimeter of water is widely used for measuring very low gas and liquid pressures.
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.
