A newton is equal to 1 kg⋅m/s 2, and a kilogram-force is 9.80665 N, [3] meaning that 1 kgf/cm 2 equals 98.0665 kilopascals (kPa). In some older publications, kilogram-force per square centimetre is abbreviated ksc instead of kg/cm 2.
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 ...

{{Convert}} uses unit-codes, which are similar to, but not necessarily exactly the same as, the usual written abbreviation for a given unit. These unit-codes are displayed in column 3 of the following tables. These are accepted as input by {{convert}} as the second and third unnamed parameters: {{convert|100|kg|lb}} → 100 kilograms (220 lb)
Convert mmHg to SI units as follows: 1 mmHg = 0.133 32 kPa. Hence the normal blood pressure in SI units is less than 16.0 kPa SBP and less than 10.7 kPa DBP. These values are similar to the pressure of water column of average human height; so pressure has to be measured on arm roughly at the level of the heart.
It is however easy to convert the parameters to different pressure and temperature units. For switching from degrees Celsius to kelvin it is sufficient to subtract 273.15 from the C parameter. For switching from millimeters of mercury to pascals it is sufficient to add the common logarithm of the factor between both units to the A parameter:
p w is the partial pressure of gaseous water during condition 1 and 2, respectively; For example, calculating how much 1 liter of air (a) at 0 °C, 100 kPa, p w = 0 kPa (known as STPD, see below) would fill when breathed into the lungs where it is mixed with water vapor (l), where it quickly becomes 37 °C (99 °F), 100 kPa, p w = 6.2 kPa (BTPS):
Low temperature approximations for both gases and solids at temperatures less than their characteristic Einstein temperatures or Debye temperatures can be made by the methods of Einstein and Debye discussed below. Water (liquid): CP = 4185.5 J⋅K −1 ⋅kg −1 (15 °C, 101.325 kPa) Water (liquid): CVH = 74.539 J⋅K −1 ⋅mol −1 (25 °C)
