Psi to Millibar (mBar) Pressure Unit Conversion Calculator
This calculator allows you to convert pressure values from pounds per square inch (psi) to millibars (mbar).
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.
Definition: Millibar (mbar)
A millibar (symbol: mbar) is a unit of pressure commonly used in meteorology to describe atmospheric pressure. It is equal to one-thousandth of a bar, which is a metric unit of pressure.
Formula for Psi to Millibar Conversion:
Pressure in mbar = Pressure in psi × 68.9476
How to Convert Psi to Millibar: Example Calculation
Suppose you have a pressure of 14.5038 psi.
To convert it to mbar:
14.5038×68.9476=1000 mbar
So, 14.5038 psi is equal to 1000 mbar.
