What are Pound-force per square inch and Millibar

Definition of Pound-force per square inch

Pound-force per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure in the Imperial system of measurement. It represents the force exerted by one pound of force acting on an area of one square inch. This unit is widely used in various industries, including automotive, aviation, and industrial equipment, to measure pressure levels in tires, hydraulic systems, and more. Understanding psi is essential for maintaining proper pressure levels and ensuring the safety and efficiency of equipment.

Definition of Millibar

A millibar is a metric unit of pressure defined as one thousandth of a bar or 100 pascals. It is commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure and is part of the International System of Units (SI). The millibar is a convenient unit for scientists and weather forecasters as it provides an easily interpretable figure for barometric pressure, which plays a crucial role in understanding weather patterns and making predictions.
