Convert bar to pascal
Please provide values below to convert bar [bar] to pascal [Pa], or Convert pascal to bar.
1 bar = 100000 Pa. To convert bar to pascal, multiply the value by 100000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Pa = 1e-05 bar). Both units measure pressure and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 bar = 100000 Pa
- 1 Pa = 1e-05 bar
- 10 bar = 1000000 Pa
- 100 bar = 10000000 Pa
How to Convert Bar to Pascal
1 bar = 100000 Pa
Example: convert 15 bar to Pa:
15 bar = 15 × 100000 Pa = 1500000 Pa

Bar
The bar is a unit of pressure equal to 100,000 pascals, roughly the atmospheric pressure at sea level.
History/Origin
The bar was introduced in 1909 by the British engineering community as a convenient unit for measuring pressure, especially in meteorology and engineering contexts.
Current Use
The bar is widely used in meteorology, engineering, and industrial applications to measure pressure, although the pascal is the SI base unit. It is also common in tire pressure measurements and other pressure-related fields.
Pascal
The pascal (Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure, defined as one newton per square meter.
History/Origin
Named after Blaise Pascal, the pascal was adopted as the SI unit of pressure in 1971, replacing earlier units like the bar and atmosphere.
Current Use
The pascal is widely used in science, engineering, and meteorology to measure pressure, with common applications including atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and fluid pressure in systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 bar in pascal?
1 bar (bar) = 100000 pascal (Pa).
How do you convert bar to pascal?
Multiply the bar value by 100000. For example, 25 bar × 100000 = 2500000 Pa.
What is 10 bar in pascal?
10 bar = 1000000 Pa.
Which unit is larger, the bar or the pascal?
The bar is the larger unit: 1 bar = 100000 Pa.
