Understanding Pressure Conversion

Conversion Formula

To convert millibars (mbar) to pascals (Pa), multiply the pressure value by 100:

Pascals = Millibars × 100

What is a Millibar (mbar)?

A millibar is a unit of pressure equal to 1/1000th of a bar. It's commonly used in meteorology and weather forecasting. One millibar is exactly equal to 100 pascals or one hectopascal (hPa).

What is a Pascal (Pa)?

The pascal is the SI unit for pressure, defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²). It's named after French mathematician Blaise Pascal and is used extensively in scientific and engineering applications.
