In scuba diving, bar is also the most widely used unit to express pressure, e.g. 200 bar being a full standard scuba tank, and depth increments of 10 metre of seawater being equivalent to 1 bar of pressure. Many engineers worldwide use the bar as a unit of pressure because, in much of their work, using pascals would involve using very large ...
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 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.
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
Values are given in terms of temperature necessary to reach the specified pressure. Valid results within the quoted ranges from most equations are included in the table for comparison. A conversion factor is included into the original first coefficients of the equations to provide the pressure in pascals (CR2: 5.006, SMI: -0.875).

log e (P i) = −5504.4088 T −1 − 3.5704628 − 1.7337458×10 −2 T + 6.5204209×10 −6 T 2 + 6.1295027 log e (T) For temperature range: 173.15 K to 273.15 K or equivalently −100 °C to 0 °C At triple point. An important basic value, which is not registered in the table, is the saturated vapor pressure at the triple point of water. The ...
Since water is much denser than air, much greater changes in ambient pressure can be experienced under water. Each 10 metres (33 ft) of depth adds another bar to the ambient pressure. Ambient-pressure diving is underwater diving exposed to the water pressure at depth, rather than in a pressure-excluding atmospheric diving suit or a submersible.
