Convert Baryes to Kilopascals
1 barye (Ba) equals 0.0001 kilopascals (kPa).
1 Ba = 0.0001 kPa
Type in either box. Scientific notation works: 1.5e-3.

How to Convert Barye to Kilopascal
- 1 Ba = 0.0001 kPa
- 1 kPa = 10000 Ba
- Example: convert 15 Ba to kPa: 15 Ba = 15 × 0.0001 kPa = 0.0015 kPa
Formula
kPa = Ba ÷ 10000
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 Ba = 1 dyn/cm² = 10⁻⁵ N ÷ 10⁻⁴ m² = 0.1 Pa
- 1 kPa = 10³ Pa
- 1 Ba = 0.1 Pa ÷ 1000 Pa per kPa = 0.0001 kPa
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Barye definition: barye; Kilopascal definition: kilopascal.
Worked examples
- A reading of 100 Ba converts to 0.01 kPa.
100 Ba × 0.0001 = 0.01 kPa - A value of 10000 Ba is 1 kPa.
10000 Ba × 0.0001 = 1 kPa

Where it's used
Baryes are used for older physics and acoustics literature, while kilopascals appear in tyre pressure outside the United States (about 200–250 kPa for cars). Both measure pressure, stress and differential pressure (force per unit area), so the conversion is a fixed factor.

Frequently asked questions
How many kilopascals are in 1 barye?
1 Ba = 0.0001 kPa.
How do I convert baryes to kilopascals?
Multiply the value in Ba by 0.0001, or divide it by 10000. For example, 15 Ba × 0.0001 = 0.0015 kPa.
Is the Ba to kPa conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly, and 1 Ba is exactly 0.0001 kPa.
