Pressure – Convert Pascals to Bars

What Is Pascal?

The Pascal is the SI derived unit for pressure in the metric system and it is defined as the pressure of one newton per square meter.

Pascals can be expressed using the formula:

1 Pa = 1 N/m^2

Pressure in pascals is equal to the force in newtons divided by the area in square meters. Pascals can b abbreviated as Pa.

What Is Bar?

pascals to bars

The bar is a non-SI metric unit for pressure and it is equal to 100,000 pascals. One bar is just less than the average atmospheric pressure.

Bars is a unit of gauge pressure that is very commonly used in the industries of geology, oceanography, and meteorology. 

Bars can be abbreviated as bar. 

Converting Pascals To Bars Using Our Calculator

When you are trying to convert pascals to bars, then the best way to get a fast and accurate conversion is to simply use our calculator located at the top of this page.

If you take a look at our calculator, you’ll be able to see that it is pretty simple and straightforward. The truth is that you will only need to add the number of units that you want to convert and make sure that you have the right units of pressure selected. Since you want to convert pascals to bars, you need to have the convert from field with the pascal selected and the convert to field with the bar selected.

But let’s take a look at a quick example so that you can fully understand how it works. 

pascals and bars

Let’s say that you want to convert 75900 pascals to bars. As we already said, you will need to add the number 75900 on the number of units field and then make sure that you have the right units of pressure selected. As soon as you do this, you’ll see the conversion result at the bottom of the calculator. In this case:

75900 pascals = 0.759 bars

In case you are interested, you can also do the opposite conversion – bars to pascals. In this case, you just need to ensure that you select bars in the convert from field and pascal in the convert to field. 

Imagine that you would like to convert 1000 bars to pascals. So, by adding the number 1000 in the number of units and by making sure that you selected the right pressure units, you would get: 

1000 bars = 100000000 pascals

Pascals To Bars – Making The Conversion By Hand

measuring pressure

In order to convert pascals to bars by hand, you just need to remember the conversion ratio between pascals and bars:

1 Pascal = 0.00001 Bar

So, let’s say that you want to convert 150000 pascals to bars. Since you already know the conversion ration, then:

150000 Pascals = 150000 X  0.00001 Bar

150000 Pascals = 1.5 Bars
