Discover the ease of converting pressure units from Torr to ksi using Newtum's precise Torr to Kip-force square Inch Converter, sparking your curiosity to explore more.
A Torr is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. It is defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, which is approximately equivalent to the pressure exerted by a millimeter of mercury (mmHg). Precisely, one Torr is equal to 133.3223684 pascals. Torr is commonly used in vacuum applications and barometric pressure measurements.
Definition of Kip-force/square inchKip-force per square inch (ksi) is a unit of pressure where one kip-force is equivalent to 1,000 pounds-force (lbf). It measures the pressure resulting from a force of one kip applied over one square inch. This unit is commonly used in materials science and engineering, notably to express tensile strength, yield strength, and other stress characteristics of materials, especially metals.
| Torr | Kip-force/square inch (ksi) |
|---|---|
| 1 Torr | 0.00001934 ksi |
| 5 Torr | 0.00009668 ksi |
| 10 Torr | 0.00019336 ksi |
| 50 Torr | 0.00096682 ksi |
| 100 Torr | 0.00193364 ksi |
| 500 Torr | 0.00966821 ksi |
| 1000 Torr | 0.01933642 ksi |
| 5000 Torr | 0.0966821 ksi |
| 10000 Torr | 0.1933642 ksi |
| 50000 Torr | 0.966821 ksi |
1 Torr = 0.00001934 ksi
1 ksi = 51,714.93 Torr
Example 1:
Convert 150 Torr to ksi:
150 Torr = 150 × 0.00001934 ksi ≈ 0.002901 ksi
Example 2:
Convert 3000 Torr to ksi:
3000 Torr = 3000 × 0.00001934 ksi ≈ 0.05802 ksi
