What are Bar and Inch

A bar is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as exactly equal to 100,000 pascals, which is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level.

An inch is a unit of length commonly used in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada. It is defined as 1/12th of a foot, or precisely 2.54 centimeters. Historically, an inch was also used in a number of other systems of units.

History of Bar and Inch

A brief history of pressure measurement reveals that the bar was introduced by the British meteorologist Napier Shaw in 1909. It has since become a recognized unit for reporting atmospheric pressure in meteorology and in various industrial applications.
