Description

Gigapascal (GPa): Measuring Extreme Pressures

The Gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure equal to one billion Pascals. It is primarily used in scientific research to measure extremely high pressures, such as those encountered in the Earth's interior or during high-pressure material synthesis. For instance, diamond anvil cells can generate pressures in the GPa range to study material behavior under extreme conditions.

The Bar: A Metric Pressure Unit

The Bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 Pascals. Although not part of the International System of Units (SI), it is widely used in various industries, including meteorology, oceanography, and engineering. One bar is approximately equal to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, making it a convenient unit for expressing pressures in these fields.
