Simplify your pressure conversions with Newtum's cPa to psi tool. Discover a seamless Centipascal to Pound-force square Inch Converter experience, sparking curiosity for precise conversions.
A Centipascal, denoted as cPa, is a unit of pressure. It represents one hundredth of a Pascal, which is the SI unit for pressure. One Pascal is defined as one Newton per square meter. Therefore, a Centipascal is equivalent to 0.01 Pascal, reflecting a relatively small amount of pressure typically used in scientific or engineering calculations. The Centipascal is not commonly used, but it can be useful in precise measurements of low-pressure values.
Definition of Pound-force per square inchPound-force per square inch, abbreviated as psi, is a unit of pressure commonly used in the United States and other countries still utilizing the imperial system of measurements. It measures the force in pounds exerted on one square inch of area. One psi is equivalent to the pressure exerted by a one-pound force applied to an area of one square inch. This unit is widely used in various industrial and mechanical processes, such as measuring tire pressure, fuel storage, and hydraulic systems.
| Centipascal (cPa) | Pound-force per square inch (psi) |
|---|---|
| 10 cPa | 0.00145 psi |
| 50 cPa | 0.00725 psi |
| 100 cPa | 0.0145 psi |
| 500 cPa | 0.0725 psi |
| 1000 cPa | 0.145 psi |
| 5000 cPa | 0.725 psi |
| 10000 cPa | 1.45 psi |
| 50000 cPa | 7.25 psi |
| 100000 cPa | 14.5 psi |
| 500000 cPa | 72.5 psi |
1 cPa = 0.000145 psi
10 cPa = 0.00145 psi
Example 1:
Convert 200 cPa to psi:
200 cPa = 200 × 0.000145 psi = 0.029 psi
Example 2:
Convert 1500 cPa to psi:
1500 cPa = 1500 × 0.000145 psi = 0.2175 psi
The Centipascal to Pound-force square Inch Converter has its roots in the need for accurate pressure conversion between different unit systems. While the Centipascal is part of the metric system, psi is a unit from the imperial system. With the progression of global trade and technology, such converters have become essential tools for engineers and scientists around the world.
Explore how the cPa to psi converter is instrumental in various real-world scenarios.
Example Conversion 1:
Converting 2500 cPa to psi:
