Pressure Converter

Welcome to the Pressure Converter! This tool allows you to convert between common pressure units: Pascals (Pa), Kilopascals (kPa), Megapascals (MPa), Bar, Millibars (mbar), Pounds per Square Inch (PSI), Standard Atmospheres (atm), Torr, and Kilograms-force per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²).

Key Features:

• Live Updates: Conversions update in real-time.
• User-Friendly: Clean and intuitive interface.
• Accurate Calculations: Based on standard conversion factors.
• Two-Way Conversion: Enter a value in any unit.

Understanding Pressure Units:

This converter uses the Pascal (Pa), the standard SI unit of pressure, as its base. Here's a brief overview:

• Pascal (Pa): The fundamental SI unit of pressure.
• Kilopascal (kPa): 1 kPa = 1000 Pa.
  \( kPa = \frac{Pa}{1000} \)
• Megapascal (MPa): 1 MPa = 1,000,000 Pa.
  \( MPa = \frac{Pa}{1000000} \)
• Bar: 1 Bar = 100,000 Pa. Common in meteorology.
  \( bar = \frac{Pa}{100000} \)
• Millibar (mbar): 1 mbar = 100 Pa.
  \( mbar = \frac{Pa}{100} \)
• Pound per Square Inch (PSI): Common in the United States.
  \( psi \approx \frac{Pa}{6894.76} \)
• Standard Atmosphere (atm): Average atmospheric pressure at sea level.
  \( atm = \frac{Pa}{101325} \)
• Torr: \( 1 Torr = \frac{1}{760} atm \approx 133.322 Pa \).
  \( Torr \approx \frac{Pa}{133.322} \)
• Kilogram-force per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²): A metric unit.
  \( kgf/cm² = \frac{Pa}{98066.5} \)

How to Use:
