The bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 Pa (100 kPa), though not part of the International System of Units (SI). A pressure of 1 bar is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level (approximately 1.013 bar). [1] [2] By the barometric formula, 1 bar is roughly the atmospheric pressure on Earth ...

Bar (unit) The bar (symbol bar ), decibar (symbol dbar) and the millibar (symbol mbar, also mb) are units of pressure. They are not SI units, but they are anyhow also used with (although discouraged) for use with the SI. The bar is still used in descriptions of pressure because it is about the same as atmospheric pressure.

The English Engineering Units is a system of consistent units used in the United States. The set is defined by the following units, [3] and definitive conversions to the International System of Units. [4] Units for other physical quantities are derived from this set as needed. In English Engineering Units, the pound-mass and the pound-force are ...
The bar is a unit of pressure, equal to 100,000 Pa. The bar is not an SI unit, but is accepted for use with SI by BIPM - The International Bureau of Weights and Measures. [1] The bar is convenient as it is quite close to the value of the standard atmosphere (1.01325 bar). Additionally, bar as a unit of measurement is useful as it is often used ...
