What are Dekapascal and Kilopascal

A Dekapascal (daPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to ten Pascals. It is not commonly used but serves as a middle ground between the Pascal and the more widely utilized Kilopascal (kPa).

A Kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure defined as one thousand Pascals. It is a more common unit for measuring pressure because it appropriately represents the pressure levels in many everyday applications.

History of Dekapascal and Kilopascal

A brief history of pressure measurement reveals that the Dekapascal to Kilopascal conversion has its roots in the adoption of the metric system. While Pascals became standard, the need for larger units led to the use of Kilopascals for practicality.
