Converting from Foot of Water (ftH₂O) to Atmosphere (atm) in Pressure

What is Foot of Water (ftH₂O)

Foot of Water (ftH₂O) is a unit of pressure often used in hydrostatic measurements. It represents the pressure exerted by a column of water that is one foot in height at a given gravitational acceleration.

What is Atmosphere (atm)

Atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure commonly used to measure air pressure or atmospheric pressure. It is the average pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere at sea level.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Foot of Water (ftH₂O) to Atmosphere (atm), you can use the following formulas:

1. Atm=33.89854ftH₂O​

2. FtH₂O=Atm×33.89854

Examples

• 17 ftH₂O is equivalent to 0.5014965 atm.
• 4 ftH₂O is equal to 0.1179992 atm.
• 15 atm is equal to 508.4781 ftH₂O.
