What are Millibar and Micropascal

Definition of Millibar

A millibar, symbolized as mbar, is a pressure unit that is equivalent to one-thousandth of a bar. The bar is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). One millibar equals 100 pascals or 0.001 bar. It is commonly used in meteorology to report atmospheric pressures.

Definition of Micropascal

A micropascal, represented as µPa, is a metric unit of pressure equal to one-millionth of a pascal. The pascal (Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure, named after Blaise Pascal, a notable French mathematician, physicist, and inventor. The micropascal is used for measuring very small pressure values and is applicable in fields like acoustics.

Millibar to Micropascal Conversion Table

Millibar (mbar) Micropascal (µPa)
1 mbar 100,000 µPa
10 mbar 1,000,000 µPa
20 mbar 2,000,000 µPa
50 mbar 5,000,000 µPa
100 mbar 10,000,000 µPa
200 mbar 20,000,000 µPa
500 mbar 50,000,000 µPa
1000 mbar 100,000,000 µPa
2000 mbar 200,000,000 µPa
5000 mbar 500,000,000 µPa

Conversion of Millibar to Micropascal

1 mbar = 100,000 µPa
1000 mbar = 100,000,000 µPa

Example 1:
convert 5 mbar to µPa:
5 mbar = 5 × 100,000 µPa = 500,000 µPa

Example 2:
convert 10 mbar to µPa:
10 mbar = 10 × 100,000 µPa = 1,000,000 µPa

History of Millibar and Micropascal

A brief history of the mbar to µPa conversion starts with the introduction of the millibar as a meteorological pressure unit in the early 20th century. The micropascal emerged later with advancements in precision measurement technologies. This converter symbolizes progress in the standardization and globalization of pressure units.
