What does Standard Atmosphere mean?

Standard Atmosphere is used as a unit of pressure.

Definition

Standard Atmosphere is defined as the pressure exerted by 760 mm of mercury at standard gravity and 0 °C temperature. It is approximately equal to the average atmospheric pressure at the sea level of Earth.

1 atm ≡ 101,325 Pa i.e. 1 Standard Atmosphere is equal to 101,325 Pascal

1 atm ≡ 1.01325 bar i.e. 1 Standard Atmosphere is equal to 1.01325 Bar

1 atm ≡ 760 Torr i.e. 1 Standard Atmosphere is equal to 760 Torr

1 atm ≡ 14.695 9 psi  i.e. 1 Standard Atmosphere is equal to 14.6959 Pound per square inch

What does Pound per Square Inch mean?

PSI stands for pounds per square inch. It is used as a unit of pressure.

Definition

PSI can be defined as the amount of pressure or stress of a pound of force per square inch of area. The symbol of psi is lb/in² or lbf/in².

PSI is commonly used in many pressure measuring applications like tire pressure, soil bearing capacity, wastewater management, fuel distribution & storage. 

Following are the major conversion for the PSI unit. 

  • 1 PSI= 6894.76 Pascals (SI unit conversion)
  • 1 PSI= 0.0689476 Bar
  • 1 PSI= 0.068046 atmospheres
  • 1 PSI= 51.7149 Torr
  • 1 PSI= 2.03602 inHg
  • 1 PSI= 27.7076 inches of the water column

What does Pressure mean?

Pressure is a kind of force. In the language of physics, a force is an object that changes or tries to change its state by acting on it or that changes or tries to change its motion by acting on a moving object.

For example, if someone pushes against a wall, the force is applied whether it changes its position or not. This effort is called force. On the other hand, the force exerted on a single area is called pressure.

This means that if we apply a force in a single case, it will be a force.

Pressure = (force ÷ area)

As an example, it is easy to take a photo with a pin because the area is less. Again, more pressure is required in the area.

The Unit of Pressure

Pressure scalar quantity, because it has value but has no direction. The SI unit of pressure is Pascal, which is equal to Newton per square meter (N/m²). Since an object or group of objects under pressure can act on its surroundings, the pressure is also measured as static energy in a single volume. It is related to the density of energy and can be expressed in joules unit per cubic meter (joules/m³, which is equal to Pascal). To make this concept precise, we use the idea of pressure. The pressure is defined to be the amount of force exerted per area.

Thanks for reading this article! Hopefully, it helps you understand what pressure is and how we measure the pressure of an object.

How to convert Standard Atmosphere to Pound per Square Inch : Detailed Description

Standard Atmosphere (atm) and Pound per Square Inch (psi) are both units of Pressure. On this page, we provide a handy tool for converting between atm and psi. To perform the conversion from atm to psi, follow these two simple steps:

Steps to solve

Have you ever needed to or wanted to convert Standard Atmosphere to Pound per Square Inch for anything? It's not hard at all:

Step 1

  • Find out how many Pound per Square Inch are in one Standard Atmosphere. The conversion factor is 14.6959 psi per atm.

Step 2

  • Let's illustrate with an example. If you want to convert 10 Standard Atmosphere to Pound per Square Inch, follow this formula: 10 atm x 14.6959 psi per atm = psi. So, 10 atm is equal to psi.
  • To convert any atm measurement to psi, use this formula: atm = psi x 14.6959. The Pressure in Standard Atmosphere is equal to the Pound per Square Inch multiplied by 14.6959. With these simple steps, you can easily and accurately convert Pressure measurements between atm and psi using our tool at Pyron Converter.

FAQ regarding the conversion between atm and psi

Question: How many Pound per Square Inch are there in 1 Standard Atmosphere ?

Answer: There are 14.6959 Pound per Square Inch in 1 Standard Atmosphere. To convert from atm to psi, multiply your figure by 14.6959 (or divide by 0.06804618975360474).

Question: How many Standard Atmosphere are there in 1 psi ?

Answer: There are 0.06804618975360474 Standard Atmosphere in 1 Pound per Square Inch. To convert from psi to atm, multiply your figure by 0.06804618975360474 (or divide by 14.6959).

Question: What is 1 atm equal to in psi ?

Answer: 1 atm (Standard Atmosphere) is equal to 14.6959 in psi (Pound per Square Inch).

Question: What is the difference between atm and psi ?

Answer: 1 atm is equal to 14.6959 in psi. That means that atm is more than a 14.6959 times bigger unit of Pressure than psi. To calculate atm from psi, you only need to divide the psi Pressure value by 14.6959.

Question: What does 5 atm mean ?

Answer: As one atm (Standard Atmosphere) equals 14.6959 psi, therefore, 5 atm means psi of Pressure.

Question: How do you convert the atm to psi ?

Answer: If we multiply the atm value by 14.6959, we will get the psi amount i.e; 1 atm = 14.6959 psi.

Question: How much psi is the atm ?

Answer: 1 Standard Atmosphere equals 14.6959 psi i.e; 1 Standard Atmosphere = 14.6959 psi.

Question: Are atm and psi the same ?

Answer: No. The atm is a bigger unit. The atm unit is 14.6959 times bigger than the psi unit.

Question: How many atm is one psi ?

Answer: One psi equals 0.06804618975360474 atm i.e. 1 psi = 0.06804618975360474 atm.

Question: How do you convert psi to atm ?

Answer: If we multiply the psi value by 0.06804618975360474, we will get the atm amount i.e; 1 psi = 0.06804618975360474 Standard Atmosphere.

Question: What is the psi value of one Standard Atmosphere ?

Answer: 1 Standard Atmosphere to psi = 14.6959.
