What are Kilopascal and Millibar

Definition of Kilopascal

A kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equivalent to 1000 pascals. It's widely used in science and engineering to measure small amounts of pressure, like the pressure exerted by a material or the atmospheric pressure changes.

Definition of Millibar

A millibar (mbar) is a metric unit of pressure that is not part of the SI unit system but is still commonly used in meteorology. One millibar is defined as one-thousandth of a bar or 100 pascals, which is a measure roughly equivalent to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level.

Kilopascal to Millibar Conversion Table

Kilopascal (kPa) Millibar (mbar)
0.1 kPa 1 mbar
1 kPa 10 mbar
2 kPa 20 mbar
5 kPa 50 mbar
10 kPa 100 mbar
20 kPa 200 mbar
50 kPa 500 mbar
100 kPa 1000 mbar
200 kPa 2000 mbar
500 kPa 5000 mbar

Conversion of Kilopascal to Millibar

1 kPa = 10 mbar
1 mbar = 0.1 kPa

Example 1:
convert 5 kPa to mbar:
5 kPa = 5 × 10 mbar = 50 mbar

Example 2:
convert 7.5 kPa to mbar:
7.5 kPa = 7.5 × 10 mbar = 75 mbar

History of Kilopascal and Millibar

The Kilopascal to Millibar Converter has its roots in the evolution of pressure measurement. Traditionally, barometers and manometers were used, but with technological advancement, digital converters enabled quick and accurate conversions between different units of pressure.
