Discover the ease of converting psi to atm with Newtum's intuitive Pound-force per Square Inch to Atmosphere Technical Converter. Dive into our tool for precise conversions that pique your curiosity and meet your technical needs.
Pound-force per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure in the imperial system, defined as the pressure exerted by one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch. It's widely used in various fields, such as automotive tire pressure, scuba tank pressure, and industrial equipment calibration.
Definition of Atmosphere technicalAtmosphere technical (at) is a pressure unit that is roughly equivalent to the atmospheric pressure at sea level. It is defined as the pressure produced by a force of one kilogram-force exerted per square centimeter. This unit is commonly used in industrial and engineering applications.
| Pound-force per Square Inch (psi) | Atmosphere Technical (atm) |
|---|---|
| 0.1 psi | 0.0068 atm |
| 0.5 psi | 0.034 atm |
| 1 psi | 0.068 atm |
| 2 psi | 0.136 atm |
| 5 psi | 0.340 atm |
| 10 psi | 0.680 atm |
| 20 psi | 1.360 atm |
| 50 psi | 3.400 atm |
| 100 psi | 6.800 atm |
| 200 psi | 13.600 atm |
1 psi = 0.068 atm
1 atm = 14.696 psi
Example 1:
Convert 15 psi to atm:
15 psi = 15 × 0.068 atm ≈ 1.02 atm
Example 2:
Convert 45 psi to atm:
45 psi = 45 × 0.068 atm ≈ 3.06 atm
