Converting from Meter of Water (mH₂0) to Inch of Mercury (inHg) in Pressure

What is Meter of Water (mH₂0)

Meter of Water (mH₂0) is a unit of pressure measurement commonly used in fluid dynamics and engineering to quantify pressure in terms of the height of a water column. It represents the pressure exerted by a column of water that is 1 meter in height.

What is Inch of Mercury (inHg)

Inch of Mercury (inHg) is a unit of pressure measurement often used in weather forecasting and aviation. It signifies the pressure exerted by a column of mercury that is 1 inch in height within a barometer.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between Meter of Water (mH₂0) and Inch of Mercury (inHg) are as follows:

inHg=0.3453156×mH2​0

mH2​0=2.895902×inHg

Examples

1. Converting 5 mH₂0 to inHg:

5×2.895902=14.47951 inHg

2. Converting 3 inHg to mH₂0:

3×0.3453156=1.035947 mH₂0

3. Converting 2 mH₂0 to inHg:

2×2.895902=5.791804 inHg

These examples demonstrate the ease of converting pressure measurements between Meter of Water (mH₂0) and Inch of Mercury (inHg) using the provided conversion formulas.
