How to Convert Barye to Inch of Mercury
- 1 Ba = 0.0000295299833 inHg
- 1 inHg = 33863.8864 Ba
- Example: convert 15 Ba to inHg: 15 Ba = 15 × 0.0000295299833 inHg = 0.0004429497495 inHg
Reference conditions. inHg: Conventional mercury column: ρ = 13 595.1 kg/m³ and gₙ = 9.80665 m/s² (≈ mercury at 0 °C / 32 °F).
Formula
inHg = Ba × 0.00002952998330101
or inHg = Ba ÷ 33863.88640341
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 Ba = 1 dyn/cm² = 10⁻⁵ N ÷ 10⁻⁴ m² = 0.1 Pa
- 1 inHg = 13 595.1 kg/m³ × 9.80665 m/s² × 0.0254 m = 3386.388640341 Pa
- 1 Ba = 0.1 Pa ÷ 3386.388640341 Pa per inHg = 0.00002952998330101 inHg
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Barye definition: barye; Inch of Mercury definition: inch of mercury.
Worked examples
- A reading of 100 Ba converts to 0.00295299833 inHg.
100 Ba × 0.0000295299833 = 0.00295299833 inHg - A value of 10000 Ba is 0.295299833 inHg.
10000 Ba × 0.0000295299833 = 0.295299833 inHg
