Discover the ease of converting pressure units from psi to GPa with our intuitive Pound-force square Inch to Gigapascal Converter. Developed by Newtum, this tool simplifies complex calculations, sparking curiosity to explore more.
Pound-force per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure in the imperial system. It measures the force in pounds exerted on one square inch of area. This unit is commonly used in various industries, including automotive and aviation, to gauge pressures in a variety of settings.
Definition of GigapascalA gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system and part of the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to a billion pascals. Gigapascals are often used in scientific contexts to measure high pressures, such as the modulus of materials like diamond or steel.
| Pound-force square Inch (psi) | Gigapascal (GPa) |
|---|---|
| 1 psi | 0.006895 GPa |
| 10 psi | 0.06895 GPa |
| 50 psi | 0.344738 GPa |
| 100 psi | 0.689476 GPa |
| 500 psi | 3.44738 GPa |
| 1000 psi | 6.89476 GPa |
| 5000 psi | 34.4738 GPa |
| 10000 psi | 68.9476 GPa |
| 50000 psi | 344.738 GPa |
| 100000 psi | 689.476 GPa |
Example 1:
Convert 1 psi to GPa:
1 psi = 1 × 0.006895 GPa = 0.006895 GPa
Example 2:
Convert 15 psi to GPa:
15 psi = 15 × 0.006895 GPa = 0.103425 GPa
