Kilonewton/square Meter
A kilonewton per square meter (kN/m^2) is a unit of pressure equivalent to one kilonewton of force applied over an area of one square meter.
History/Origin
The kilonewton per square meter is derived from the SI units of force (newton) and area (square meter). It has been used in engineering and scientific contexts to measure pressure, especially in fields like civil and mechanical engineering, since the adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, kN/m^2 is commonly used in engineering to specify stress, pressure, and load measurements, often interchangeably with the Pascal (Pa), where 1 kN/m^2 equals 1,000 Pa.
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.
