The Barye (Ba) in Pressure

What is Barye (Ba)

The barye (Ba) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, named after the French physicist Pierre-Simon Laplace. It is primarily used in fields like physics and engineering to measure pressure, stress, and tensile strength.

In terms of its relation to other pressure units, the barye belongs to the category of absolute pressure measurements. It is particularly useful for calculations in fluid mechanics and material science, where precise pressure measurements are necessary. The barye can be defined as one dyne per square centimeter, making it a smaller unit compared to most others used in pressure measurement.
