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 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.
What is Attopascal?
The attopascal (symbol: aPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one quintillionth (10-18) of a pascal. It is an extremely small pressure unit used mainly in theoretical physics, nanotechnology, and scientific research involving ultra-low pressure measurements. The attopascal uses the SI prefix atto, representing a factor of 10-18.
One attopascal is equal to 0.000000000000000001 pascal, 0.001 femtopascal, 0.000000001 nanopascal, 1×10-23 bar, and 9.86923×10-24 standard atmosphere. Although rarely used outside research, the attopascal is part of the complete SI pressure scale.
