How to convert pressure
Gauge and absolute pressure use different zero references; changing units does not change that reference. Torr is 1/760 of a standard atmosphere.
Multiply by the source unit factor to get the base quantity, then divide by the target factor. The other-units table compares the same value without retyping it.
A worked example
1 bar = 100000 pascals = 100 kilopascals.
Before you use the result
Displayed values are rounded; extra digits do not make your measurement more accurate. Gauge and absolute pressure use different zero references; changing units does not change that reference. Torr is 1/760 of a standard atmosphere.
bar to kilopascals (kPa): reference values
| bar | kilopascals (kPa) |
|---|---|
| 1 | 100 |
| 10 | 1000 |
| 100 | 10000 |
Calculated with the same conversion as the tool above.
