Purpose
The Pressure Conversions category is designed for those working with pressure—whether in physics, engineering, weather forecasting, or industrial applications—providing tools to convert between metric, imperial, and specialized units effortlessly.
History
Pressure units have varied origins: pascals honor blaise pascal’s 17th-century work, atmospheres reflect sea-level pressure from Torricelli’s barometer, bars emerged in the 20th century for meteorology, torr from vacuum studies, inches of mercury from early barometers, and technical atmosphere from engineering needs. This category ties these together.
