PSIA is Pounds per Square Inch Absolute, as opposed to PSIG which is PSI Gauge. PSIA is absolute pressure. For example, normal atmospheric pressure is about 14.7 PSIA, so a PSIA device connected to atmosphere would read 14.7. PSIG is relative pressure, so if system pressure is 15.7 PSIA, and atmospheric pressure is 14.7 PSIA, then PSIG would be 1.0
0 mmHg is equivalent to 0 psia because both represent a pressure of zero relative to absolute vacuum. However, 760 mmHg is equal to 14.7 psia, not 0 psig. 760 mmHg is equivalent to atmospheric pressure, which is the reference point for psig.
To convert bar to psia (pounds per square inch absolute), you need to add the atmospheric pressure in psia to the pressure in bar. 1 bar is approximately equal to 14.5038 psia (standard atmospheric pressure at sea level).
PSIG refers to pound/force per square inch gauge, while PSI measures the pressure relative to a vacuum. If you want to convert a figure from PSIG to PSI, you would need to add 14.7psi to your PSIG figure, which will give you your PSIA result.
Distance from the Equator is measured using lines of latitude. The Equator is designated as 0 degrees latitude, and distances are measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds north or south of the Equator.
Latitude is measured in degrees North and South from the North to South poles. Longitude is measured in degrees East and West starting with 0 at Greenwich, England.
psia to psig psig - 15 15 - 15= 0 psig
To convert 10 psia (pounds per square inch absolute) to inches of mercury (in Hg), you can use the conversion factor where 1 psia is approximately equal to 2.036 in Hg. Therefore, 10 psia is about 20.36 in Hg. Since vacuum pressure is typically measured as a negative value, you would express 10 psia as a vacuum of approximately 20.36 in Hg.
0 mmHg is equivalent to 0 psia because both represent a pressure of zero relative to absolute vacuum. However, 760 mmHg is equal to 14.7 psia, not 0 psig. 760 mmHg is equivalent to atmospheric pressure, which is the reference point for psig.
No, 0 psig (pounds per square inch gauge) and 14.7 psia (pounds per square inch absolute) are not 14.7 pounds apart; they represent different reference points. Psig measures pressure relative to atmospheric pressure, while psia measures it relative to a perfect vacuum. Since 0 psig means the pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure, it corresponds to 14.7 psia at sea level. Therefore, they are actually the same pressure level.
14.7 psia represents standard atmospheric pressure, or 1 atm. PSIA is just psi with atmospheric pressure taken into account also.
psia=psig+atmospheric pressure where, atmospheric pressure = 14.7psi therefore psig=psia-atmospheric pressure psig=100-14.7 psig=85.3psig
Pounds per square inch absolute (psia) is a unit of pressure that measures the pressure relative to a perfect vacuum. It takes into account the atmospheric pressure at sea level, which is approximately 14.7 psia. This means that a pressure measurement in psia includes both the pressure above atmospheric pressure (gauge pressure) and atmospheric pressure itself.
add atmosperic pressure to gage pressure to convert to psia one atm standard = 14.7 psi
To convert 20 psia (pounds per square inch absolute) to psi (pounds per square inch gauge), you need to subtract atmospheric pressure, which is typically around 14.7 psi at sea level. Therefore, 20 psia - 14.7 psi = 5.3 psi. Thus, 20 psia is equivalent to 5.3 psi.
14.7psia = about 30inhg thus, let 14.7 be 15 for easier calculations if 15 psia = 30 inhg then 1 psia = 30/15 inhg therefore 1 psia = 2 inhg or 1 inhg = 0.5 psia so 10 inhg is about 5 psia hope this helps
