This calculator allows you to convert pressure values from converting kilopascals (kPa) to pounds per square inch (psi):
Definition: Kilopascal (kPa)
A kilopascal (symbol: kPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It is equal to 1,000 pascals. The kilopascal is widely used in various fields, including engineering and meteorology, to measure pressure.
Definition: Pound-force per Square Inch (psi)
A pound-force per square inch (symbol: psi) is a unit of pressure used in the imperial and US customary systems. It represents the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch.
Formula for kPa to Psi Conversion:
Pressure in psi = Pressure in kPa × 0.1450377
How to Convert kPa to Psi: Example Calculation
Suppose you have a pressure of 500 kPa.
- To convert it to psi: 500 × 0.1450377 = 72.51885 psi
- So, 500 kPa is equal to 72.51885 psi.
