How to Use This Calculator

1

Select Pressure Type

Choose the type of pressure you want to calculate: Force/Area Pressure, Atmospheric Pressure, Gauge Pressure, or Absolute Pressure.

2

Choose Units

Select between Metric (Pa, kPa, MPa) or Imperial (psi, atm) units for your calculations.

3

Enter Parameters

Input the required values for your selected pressure type. The calculator will show different input fields based on your selection.

4

Pressure Calculation Tips

1

Pressure is defined as force per unit area (P = F/A)

2

Atmospheric pressure at sea level is approximately 101,325 Pa or 14.7 psi

3

Gauge pressure is the pressure relative to atmospheric pressure

4

Absolute pressure includes atmospheric pressure

5

Always double-check your units - mixing metric and imperial can lead to incorrect results

6

For accurate calculations, consider all forces and areas acting on the system
