What are Psi and Petapascal

Definition of Psi

Psi, or pounds per square inch, is a unit of pressure used to quantify the force applied over one square inch of an area. One psi equals the pressure resulting from a one-pound-force applied to an area of one square inch.

Definition of Petapascal

A Petapascal (PPa) is a metric unit of pressure that is part of the International System of Units (SI). It represents one quadrillion (10^15) Pascals, where a Pascal is defined as one newton per square meter. The Petapascal is a unit used in scientific contexts to measure extremely high pressures.
