kilopascal to pound per square inch Conversion Formula

To convert from kilopascal (kPa) to pound per square inch (psi), use the following formula:

 pound per square inch (psi)\textbf{ pound per square inch} \text{ (psi)}

=0.00014503768078×1000× kilopascal (kPa)= 0.00014503768078 \times 1000\times \textbf{ kilopascal} \text{ (kPa)}

=0.14503768078× kilopascal (kPa)= 0.14503768078\times \textbf{ kilopascal} \text{ (kPa)}

With 0.000145037680780.00014503768078 is the ratio between the base units kilopound per square inch (ksi) and kilopascal (kPa).

Example

Let's convert 5 kilopascal (kPa) to pound per square inch (psi).

Using the formula:

5×0.14503768078=0.72518840395 \times 0.14503768078 = 0.7251884039

Therefore, 5 kilopascal (kPa) is equal to 0.72518840390.7251884039 pound per square inch (psi).

What is a kilopascal (kPa)?

A kilopascal (kPa) is a base unit of pressure in the metric system. The plural form is kilopascals.

What is a pound per square inch (psi)?

A pound per square inch (psi) is a unit of pressure in the imperial system, equal to one thousandth of a kilopound per square inch (0.001 ksi). The plural form is pounds per square inch.

What is the metric system?

The metric system is a decimal-based system of measurement used by nearly every country in the world. Its key feature is the use of prefixes to denote multiples and submultiples of the base units by powers of ten.

What is the imperial system?

The imperial system is a system of measurement that was first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824. It's known for using units like inches, feet, pounds, and gallons. While most of the world now uses the metric system, the imperial system remains the official system of measurement in the United States and is still used in specific contexts in other countries, such as the United Kingdom and Canada.
