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 Inch?
The pound force per square inch (symbol: psi or lbf/in2) is a non-SI unit of pressure equal to one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch. It is one of the most widely used pressure units in the United States for measuring tire pressure, hydraulic systems, compressed gases, and industrial equipment. Although the pascal is the SI unit of pressure, the psi remains the preferred unit in many engineering applications. More information is available in the pounds per square inch article.
One pound force per square inch is equal to 6,894.76 pascals, 6.89476 kilopascals, 0.0689476 bar, 0.068046 standard atmosphere, and 0.0703069 kilogram-force per square centimetre. The psi is one of the world's most recognized units for measuring pressure.
What is Torr?
Torr (symbol: Torr) is a unit of pressure defined as exactly 133.322368421 pascals, equivalent to one millimeter of mercury (mmHg) under standard conditions. The torr is widely used in vacuum technology, physics, analytical chemistry, and medical applications to measure low-pressure environments. It is commonly used to specify vacuum pump performance, laboratory vacuum systems, and pressure in scientific instruments. Torr is frequently converted to pascals, millimeters of mercury (mmHg), and standard atmospheres (atm) for engineering, laboratory, and industrial pressure measurements.
