This calculator enables you to convert pressure values from Bar to Pounds per Square Foot (psf), a unit commonly used in structural engineering, HVAC systems, and fluid dynamics.
Definition: Bar
The Bar is a metric unit of pressure equal to 100,000 Pascals. It is widely used in scientific and industrial applications for measuring pressure, particularly in meteorology, hydraulics, and process engineering.
Definition: Pounds per Square Foot (psf)
The Pound per Square Foot (psf) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square foot. It is commonly used in construction, structural engineering, and ventilation systems.
Formula for Bar to psf Conversion
Pressure in psf=Pressure in Bar×2088.54
How to Convert Bar to psf: Example Calculation
Suppose you have a pressure of 2 Bar. To convert it to psf:
2 Bar×2088.54=4177.08 psf
So, 2 Bar is equal to 4177.08 psf.
Quick Reference Conversion Table for Bar to psf
| Bar | Pounds per Square Foot (psf) |
| 0.1 Bar | 208.854 psf |
| 0.5 Bar | 1044.27 psf |
| 1 Bar | 2088.54 psf |
| 5 Bar | 10,442.7 psf |
| 10 Bar | 20,885.4 psf |
Uses of Bar to psf Conversion Calculator
- Structural Engineering: Convert pressure values for wind loads, soil pressure, and other structural calculations.
