Guest Derek Uzzell Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 65psi = 4.48bar GOOGLE searching on "psi to bar" will pull up plenty of conversion table references and I used www.britishmetrics.com/html/pis-bar.htm Searching obn "conversion tables" would do the same thing.

Guest John S Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Hi Bill, like Derek says, there are plenty of conversion tables available. I typed in "bar pressure" and all the conversions are there to see. For instance, to convert "bar" to lb/sq ins , one multiplies by 14.508. Hope this helps.John S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest John S Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Whoops!! I should have thought more before I put my oar in - the conversion was certainly 14.7 when I went to tech coll over 50 yrs ago. Blame the American website I copied it from (without engaging the grey matter) - it does include the let out clause "The following information may have errors. It is not permissible to be used by anyone who has ever met a lawyer"!! Sorry to mislead. John S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Derek Uzzell Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Sorry guys, the fact that bar and atmosphere are NOT identical units has come up in the past on the forum and John S was correct with his original statement. 1 bar = 14.5037626psi, whereas 1 atmosphere = 14.6959409psi (See www.ilpi.com/msds/ref/pressureunits.html for confirmation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bill Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 The International Standard Atmosphere is 29.92 inches of mercury, or 1013.2mb, which is obviously 1.0132 bars. Anyone who has ever looked at a synoptic chart (or watched the weather forecast on TV) will know this fluctuates as Highs and Lows move through. Hope everybody is now thoroughly confused!
