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 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.
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.
