Unit Information

Bar (bar)

Definition

The bar is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as exactly 100,000 Pa (100 kPa), which is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level.

Current Use

The bar and the millibar are used in meteorology, engineering, and in various industries to measure atmospheric pressure and fluid pressure.

Torr (torr)

Definition

The torr (symbol: Torr) is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, defined as exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere. It is approximately equal to the pressure exerted by a millimeter of mercury.

Current Use

The torr is frequently used in high-vacuum physics and medicine (for blood pressure measurements, though often still referred to as mmHg).
