Explore our intuitive mbar to psf converter for accurate and quick conversions, designed by Newtum. It's essential for professionals who need precise pressure unit conversions.
The millibar is a unit of pressure defined as one-thousandth of a bar, which is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). One millibar equals 100 pascals or one hectopascal. It is commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure.
Definition of Pound-force per square footPound-force per square foot (psf) is a unit of pressure where one psf equals the pressure resulting from a one pound-force applied to an area of one square foot. It is part of the United States customary units, primarily used in construction and engineering in the US.
| Millibar (mbar) | Pound-force per square foot (psf) |
|---|---|
| 10 mbar | 0.204816 psf |
| 20 mbar | 0.409631 psf |
| 30 mbar | 0.614447 psf |
| 40 mbar | 0.819263 psf |
| 50 mbar | 1.024079 psf |
| 60 mbar | 1.228895 psf |
| 70 mbar | 1.433711 psf |
| 80 mbar | 1.638526 psf |
| 90 mbar | 1.843342 psf |
| 100 mbar | 2.048158 psf |
1 mbar = 0.0204816 psf
100 mbar = 2.04816 psf
Example 1:
Convert 250 mbar to psf:
250 mbar = 250 × 0.0204816 psf = 5.1204 psf
Example 2:
Convert 500 mbar to psf:
500 mbar = 500 × 0.0204816 psf = 10.2408 psf
The Millibar to Pound-force per Square Foot Converter is a tool that emerged from the need to translate meteorological atmospheric pressure readings, which are often in millibars, into a unit more commonly used in engineering and construction in the United States, namely the pound-force per square foot.
Discover the practical applications of converting millibar to pound-force per square foot in everyday scenarios and professional fields.
Example 1:
Convert 1013.25 mbar to psf:
1013.25 mbar = 1013.25 × 0.0204816 psf = 20.7525 psf
Example 2:
Convert 850 mbar to psf:
850 mbar = 850 × 0.0204816 psf = 17.40936 psf
