Millimeter of Mercury (mmHg) to Bar Pressure Unit Conversion Calculator
This calculator allows you to convert pressure values from millimeters of mercury (mmHg) to Bar.
Definition: Millimeter of Mercury (mmHg)
A millimeter of mercury (mmHg) is a unit of pressure defined as the pressure exerted by a 1 mm high column of mercury at 0°C under standard gravity. It is commonly used in atmospheric and clinical measurements.
Definition: Bar
A bar is a metric unit of pressure, defined as 100,000 Pascals. It is widely used in engineering and meteorology to represent pressure.
Formula for mmHg to Bar Conversion:
Pressure in Bar = Pressure in mmHg × 0.00133322
How to Convert mmHg to Bar: Example Calculation
Suppose you have a pressure of 760 mmHg (which is standard atmospheric pressure at sea level).
To convert it to Bar:
760 × 0.00133322 = 1.01325 Bar
So, 760 mmHg is approximately equal to 1.01325 Bar.
