Discover the convenience of converting psi to cmHg with our intuitive tool. Simplify your pressure conversions between Pound-force per square inch and Centimeter Mercury at 0°C with ease.
Pound-force per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch.
Definition of Centimeter of mercuryA centimeter of mercury (cmHg) is a unit of pressure measurement that equates to the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of mercury at 0 degrees Celsius at the standard acceleration of gravity.
| Pound-force per square inch (psi) | Centimeter Mercury (cmHg) |
|---|---|
| 1 psi | 1.9337 cmHg |
| 2 psi | 3.8674 cmHg |
| 3 psi | 5.8011 cmHg |
| 4 psi | 7.7348 cmHg |
| 5 psi | 9.6685 cmHg |
| 6 psi | 11.6022 cmHg |
| 7 psi | 13.5359 cmHg |
| 8 psi | 15.4696 cmHg |
| 9 psi | 17.4033 cmHg |
| 10 psi | 19.3370 cmHg |
Example 1:
Convert 1 psi to cmHg:
1 psi = 1 × 1.9337 cmHg = 1.9337 cmHg
Example 2:
Convert 2.5 psi to cmHg:
2.5 psi = 2.5 × 1.9337 cmHg = 4.83425 cmHg
The concept of measuring pressure in pounds per square inch and converting it to centimeters of mercury has been a valuable tool in various scientific and industrial fields for accurate pressure readings and standardized measurements.
Uncover the practical applications of converting psi to cmHg in everyday scenarios and specialized fields.
Example 1: To convert 15 psi to cmHg, you multiply 15 by 1.9337 resulting in 29.0055 cmHg.
Example 2: Converting 22 psi to cmHg equals 22 times 1.9337, which equals 42.5414 cmHg.
