What is a kilopascal (kPa)?

A kilopascal (kPa) is a metric unit of pressure that equals 1,000 pascals.

It is one of the most common units for measuring pressure worldwide, used in both scientific and everyday applications.

The Kilopascal (kPa) Explained

The base unit, the pascal (Pa), is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal.

As part of the metric system (also known as the SI system), the kilopascal is widely used in scientific, engineering, and industrial fields due to its standardization and ease of calculation.

Common Applications of Kilopascals (kPa)

The kPa unit is used to measure pressure in many everyday and technical contexts. Common examples include:

Tire Pressure: A common measurement for vehicle tire pressure in many countries outside the US.
Weather Forecasting: Used for reporting atmospheric pressure.
HVAC Systems: Essential for measuring differential pressure in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.
Medical: Frequently used for measuring blood pressure.
Manufacturing: Critical for monitoring pressure in various industrial processes.

Kilopascal Conversions (kPa to PSI and Bar)

For practical use, it's essential to understand how kPa converts to other common pressure units.

kPa to PSI: 1 kPa is approximately 0.145 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch). PSI is the standard pressure unit used in the United States.
kPa to Bar: 100 kPa is exactly equal to 1 bar. The bar is another metric unit frequently used for atmospheric and water pressure.
