What are Microbar and Kilopascal

Definition of Microbar

A microbar (symbol: µbar) is a unit of pressure, equivalent to one millionth of a bar. The bar itself is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as 100 kilopascals, making a microbar precisely equal to 0.1 pascals (Pa).

Definition of Kilopascal

A kilopascal (symbol: kPa) is a unit of pressure within the metric system and part of the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to 1,000 pascals, which are the SI unit for pressure. One kilopascal equals 0.01 bars, indicating its relationship to the more commonly known unit of bar.
