kgf/cm² = atm × 1.033227
Understanding the Units
Atmosphere (atm)
An atmosphere is a unit of pressure equal to the average pressure of Earth's atmosphere at sea level (101,325 pascals). It's commonly used in physics and engineering applications.
Kilogram per Square Centimeter (kgf/cm²)
A kilogram per square centimeter is a unit of pressure representing the force of one kilogram-force applied to one square centimeter. Though not an SI unit, it's still used in some industrial applications.
Example Calculation
To convert 5 atmospheres to kilograms per square centimeter:
5 atm × 1.033227 = 5.166135 kgf/cm²
