A centimetre of water [1] is a unit of pressure. It may be defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 cm in height at 4 °C (temperature of maximum density) at the standard acceleration of gravity, so that 1 cmH 2 O (4°C) = 999.9720 kg/m 3 × 9.80665 m/s 2 × 1 cm = 98.063754138 Pa ≈ 98.0638 Pa, but conventionally a nominal maximum water density of 1000 kg/m 3 is used, giving ...
The bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 Pa (100 kPa), though not part of the International System of Units (SI). A pressure of 1 bar is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level (approximately 1.013 bar).
a fitting that connects pipes of different diameters, genders, or threads (see § Coupling below) [10] adapter spools (also called crossover spools), used on oilfields and pressure control, have different diameters, pressure ratings or designs at each end [11] adapters to convert NPT to BSP pipe threads are available [12]
The bar as: 1 bar = 100 000 pascals (Pa) = 100 kPa1; The old definition was: 1 bar = 1 000 000 dynes/square centimetre; But these definitions are equivalent, so it makes no sense to say one is the "old" definition.
10 Pa Pressure increase per millimeter of a water column at Earth mean sea level [26] 10 Pa Pressure due to direct impact of a gentle breeze (~9 mph or 14 km/h) [27] [28] [29] 86 Pa Pressure from the weight of a U.S. penny lying flat [30] 10 2 Pa
The metre (or meter) sea water (msw) is a metric unit of pressure used in underwater diving.It is defined as one tenth of a bar. [1] [2]The unit used in the US is the foot sea water (fsw), based on standard gravity and a sea-water density of 64 lb/ft 3.
A DIN standard for gas cylinder valves for test pressures up to 300 bar (4,400 psi). EN 15202 [9] A European standard for LPG equipment and accessories, specifying LPG cylinder valve connections.

Typical pressures and temperatures achievable with BARS are 10 GPa (99,000 atm) and 2,500 °C (4,530 °F; 2,770 K). [ 2 ] [ 1 ] The BARS technology was invented around 1989–1991 by the scientists from the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR . [ 2 ]
