Converting from Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) to Millibar (mbar) in Pressure

What is Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg)

Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) is a pressure unit commonly used in meteorology and barometry. It represents the amount of pressure exerted by a column of mercury that is 1 centimeter in height at standard gravity.

What is Millibar (mbar)

Millibar (mbar) is a metric unit of pressure that is widely used in meteorology and atmospheric studies. It is equivalent to one-thousandth of a bar, where a bar is defined as 100,000 pascals.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between Centimeter of Mercury (cmHg) and Millibar (mbar) can be achieved using the following formulas:

1. To convert from cmHg to mbar: mbar=cmHg×13.3224

2. To convert from mbar to cmHg: cmHg=mbar×0.07500615

Examples

• Converting 13 cmHg to mbar: 13 cmHg=13×13.3224 mbar=173.3191 mbar

• Converting 10 cmHg to mbar: 10 cmHg=10×13.3224 mbar=133.3224 mbar

• Converting 16 mbar to cmHg: 16 mbar=16×0.07500615 cmHg=1.200098 cmHg
