Psi to Pascal (Pa) Conversion Calculator
This below calculator helps you convert pressure values from pounds per square inch (psi) to pascals (Pa):
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, defined as the pressure from a force of one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch.
Definition: Pascal (Pa)
The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure, defined as one newton per square meter. It is commonly used in scientific and engineering applications.
Formula for Psi to Pa Conversion:
Pressure in Pa = Pressure in psi×6894.76
How to Convert Psi to Pa: Example Calculation
Suppose you have a pressure of 5 psi.
To convert it to pascals:
5×6894.76=34473.8 Pa
So, 5 psi is equal to 34,473.8 Pa.
Quick Reference Conversion Table for Psi to Pa
