How to Convert Pascal to Bar

1 pascal = 1 × 10-5 bar exact

Bar = Pascal × 1 × 10-5

Example: 15940 Pa × 1 × 10-5 = 0.1594 bar

Reverse Conversion

To convert bar back to pascals:

  • Remember, 1 bar equals 100000 pascals.
  • To convert 0.1594 bar to Pa, multiply 0.1594 x 100000, resulting in 15940 Pa.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.

15940 Pa is also equal to:

  • 15.94 kPa
  • 2.3119 psi
About these units
