Inch Water (4°c)
Inch water (4°C) is a unit of pressure measurement representing the pressure exerted by a one-inch column of water at 4 degrees Celsius.
History/Origin
The inch water (4°C) has been used historically in engineering and meteorology to measure low-pressure differences, especially in ventilation and HVAC systems, as a practical alternative to more complex units.
Current Use
Today, inch water (4°C) is primarily used in the United States for measuring low-pressure differences in HVAC, ventilation, and fluid systems, serving as a standard unit in these fields within the pressure converter category of common converters.
Kilopascal
The kilopascal (kPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 1,000 pascals, where one pascal is defined as one newton per square meter.
History/Origin
The kilopascal was introduced as part of the metric system to provide a convenient unit for measuring pressure, especially in scientific and engineering contexts, replacing larger units like the bar in many applications.
Current Use
The kilopascal is widely used today in various fields such as meteorology, engineering, and physics to measure pressure, including tire pressure, blood pressure, and atmospheric pressure.
