Unit Information

Millimeter mercury (0°C) (mmHg)

Definition

The millimeter of mercury (symbol: mmHg) is a manometric unit of pressure, formerly defined as the extra pressure generated by a column of mercury one millimeter high at 0°C. Today it is defined as exactly 1/760 of an atmosphere.

Current Use

mmHg is widely used in medicine for measuring blood pressure and in various fields involving vacuum measurements and weather reports.

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.
