no, not at all. bar is a logical metric unit, psi is imperial. because the us doesn’t know what powers of 10 are, there’s never a nice conversion factor.
Word. “The us doesn’t know what powers of 10 are” just didn’t convey that clearly.
We’re stuck with this shit for now, and one of the few positive things is that it forces you to understand both the conversions and power of 10 is cake compared to understanding both and converting.
100.000 PSI is equal to 1 bar(if I remember correctly)
Unfortunately no, 1 bar (1 atmosphere) is 100,000 pascal
PSI is pounds per square inch and is roughly 14.5 PSI to 1 bar, and to me, way less intuitive than bar
Ah thanks.

US uses both and is capable of conversion. It is unfortunate, but saying it doesn’t know powers of ten is pretty condescending.
I said (or at least meant) that imperial doesn’t use powers of ten like metrkc
