What are Bar and Ksi

Definition of Bar

A bar is a metric unit of pressure, equivalent to 100 kilopascals. It is roughly equal to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. Although not a part of the International System of Units (SI), it is widely used in the fields of meteorology, oceanography, and engineering for measuring atmospheric pressures and the strength of materials.

Definition of Ksi

KSI, standing for kilopound per square inch, is a unit of pressure. One KSI is equal to 1,000 pounds-force per square inch (psi). It is commonly used in materials science and engineering to express large amounts of pressure or stress in materials, particularly in the United States.
