Kilogram-Force/sq. Cm
Kilogram-force per square centimeter (kgf/cm²) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one kilogram-force applied over an area of one square centimeter.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the use of the kilogram-force, a non-SI unit of force based on the gravitational force on a kilogram, and was commonly used in engineering and physics before the widespread adoption of the Pascal. It was particularly prevalent in countries using the metric system for pressure measurements.
Current Use
Although largely replaced by the Pascal (Pa) in scientific contexts, kgf/cm² is still used in some industries such as hydraulics, pneumatics, and engineering to express pressure, especially in regions or applications where traditional units persist.
Inch Water (60°f)
Inch water (60°F), symbol inAq, is a unit of pressure measuring the height of a water column at 60°F that exerts a pressure equivalent to one inch of water column.
History/Origin
The inch water unit originated in the United States as a practical measurement for low-pressure applications, particularly in HVAC and fluid systems, based on the height of a water column. Its use has been standardized in various industries for measuring small pressure differences.
Current Use
It is currently used in fields such as HVAC, pneumatic systems, and low-pressure fluid measurements to quantify small pressure differences, especially in the United States.
