Please provide values below to convert hectopascal [hPa] to pounds per square inch [psi], or change ↔.
hectopascal [hPa]
Definition: The hectopascal (hPa) is a metric unit of pressure equal to 100 pascals.
Historyandorigin: Historically, hectopascals were used in meteorology for easier handling of pressure values, as the pascal is quite small.
CurrentUse: It is still commonly used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure, particularly in weather reports.
funfact: Hectopascals are equivalent to millibars (mb), which is another unit commonly used in weather forecasting.
pounds per square inch [psi]
Definition: Pounds per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure used to measure force applied to a one-inch square area.
Historyandorigin: Psi has been widely used in the United States and the UK for measuring tire pressure, hydraulic systems, and other engineering applications.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used in the United States for measuring the pressure in tires, gas tanks, and industrial systems.
funfact: A typical car tire is inflated to around 30-35 psi.
