Converting from Inch of Water (inH₂0) to Newton per Square Meter (N/m²) | Pressure

What is Inch of Water (inH₂0)

Inch of Water (inH₂0) is a unit of pressure commonly used in the measurement of low pressures. It represents the pressure exerted by a column of water that is 1 inch in height at specified conditions.

What is Newton per Square Meter (N/m²)

Newton per Square Meter (N/m²) is the SI unit of pressure. It is a measure of force per unit area, where one Newton of force is applied over an area of one square meter.
