0 K :: The temperature where a vacuum freezes. (joke)


Mitsu's boost gauge reads plus boost in Kg/cm^2, but vacuum in cmHg.

But if you think that's confusing, try debugging a european CIS system, with control pressure in bar versus ambient pressure in mmHg. Nice to have a computer.

At least they didn't list ignition advance in milliradians or in grads.

1 bar = 100,000 Pa = 100 kPa

1 bar approximates 14.5 psi

1 atm approximates 14.7 psi

Hey guys, I have a small Converter program which can convert any measurement. I tried to post it but it's just a hair bigger than the upload limit. PM me your email addresses, and I can send via email.

If someone is willing to host this file, then PM me I can email to you.

Well, there seemed to be some confusion between 1 bar and 1 atm. Actually they're so close as to be virutally interchangeable to be honest (sorta like ps and hp).

Well, there seemed to be some confusion between 1 bar and 1 atm, and someone had "corrected" me with wrong info, so I felt a comprehensive listing of interconversions was needed.

But really, bar and atm are so close as to be virtually interchangeable (sorta like ps and hp).
