Convert Bar to Kilopascal
Instantly convert Bar to Kilopascal with our advanced Pressure calculator. Whether you need precise calculations for Bar or Kilopascal, this tool provides accurate results with related formulas and conversion tables.
What is a Bar?
The Bar is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). One bar is exactly equal to 100,000 pascals, roughly atmospheric pressure at sea level.
What is a Kilopascal?
The Kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 1,000 pascals. It is commonly used in meteorology and tire pressure measurements.
How to Convert Bar to Kilopascal
To convert Bar to Kilopascal, multiply the Bar value by 100.
kPa = bar × 100Manual Calculation Steps
Step 1: Identify the Formula
The standard formula to convert from Bar to Kilopascal is:
kPa = bar × 100Step 2: Plug in the Value
Substitute the value you want to convert (for example, 5 bar) into the formula.
Step 3: Calculate the Result
Perform the calculation to get the result in Kilopascal.
