Convert Kilopascal to Atmosphere (kpa to atm)
In next fields, kindly type your value in the text box under title [ From: ] to convert from kilopascal to Atmosphere (kpa to atm). As you type your value, the answer will be automatically calculated and displayed in the text box under title [ To: ].
Kilopascal (abbreviations: kPa, or kN/m2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is one kilonewton per square meter. It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal.
Atmosphere (abbreviation: atm): is a unit of standard pressure, equal to 101325 Pa, or 1.01325 bar.
How to Convert Kilopascals to Atmospheres
Example: How many Atmospheres are equivalent to 83.55 kilopascals?
As;
1 kilopascals = 0.00987 Atmospheres
83.55 kilopascals = Y Atmospheres
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 83.55 times 0.00987 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 83.55 * 0.00987 / 1 = 0.8246385 Atmospheres
Answer is: 0.8246385 Atmospheres are equivalent to 83.55 kilopascals.
