Converting from Bar (bar) to Kilogram per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²)

What is Bar (bar)

Bar is a metric unit of pressure that is widely used in the industry, particularly in Europe. It is defined as the pressure exerted by a force of one newton per square meter. This unit is commonly used in measuring atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and hydraulic systems.

What is Kilogram per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²)

Kilogram per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a metric unit of pressure that is commonly used in engineering and science applications. It is defined as the pressure exerted by a force of one kilogram-force acting on an area of one square centimeter.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between Bar and Kilogram per Square Centimeter can be done using the following formulas:

• To convert from Bar to Kilogram per Square Centimeter:

Pressure in kgf/cm²=Pressure in bar×1.019716

• To convert from Kilogram per Square Centimeter to Bar:

Pressure in bar=Pressure in kgf/cm²×0.980665

Examples

1. Converting 5 bar to kgf/cm²:

5 bar=5×1.019716=5.098581 kgf/cm²

2. Converting 16 kgf/cm² to bar:

16 kgf/cm²=16×0.980665=15.69064 bar

3. Converting 6 bar to kgf/cm²:

6 bar=6×1.019716=6.118297 kgf/cm²

In conclusion, these conversion formulas can be used to easily convert between Bar and Kilogram per Square Centimeter, allowing for seamless calculation of pressures in different units.
