Pound-Force/square Foot
Pound-force per square foot (lbf/ft^2) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one pound-force applied over an area of one square foot.
History/Origin
This unit has been traditionally used in the United States for measuring pressure, especially in fields like construction and engineering, originating from the imperial system of units.
Current Use
Today, pound-force per square foot is primarily used in specific engineering and construction contexts within the US, although it has largely been replaced by SI units like Pascals in scientific and international applications.
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.
