mmHg to psi Calculator

Formula

To convert pressure from mmHg to psi:

\[ \text{PSI} = \text{MMHG} \times 0.019337 \]

Where:

\(\text{PSI}\) is the pressure in pounds per square inch (psi)
\(\text{MMHG}\) is the pressure in millimeters of mercury (mmHg)

What is mmHg to psi Conversion?

The conversion from millimeters of mercury (mmHg) to pounds per square inch (psi) is used to express pressure in different units. Millimeters of mercury is often used in medicine and physiology, while pounds per square inch is more common in engineering and technical fields. Converting between these units helps in comparing and interpreting pressure measurements across various applications.

Example Calculation 1

Assume the following value:

Pressure in mmHg = 760 mmHg

**Step 1:** Convert mmHg to psi:

\[ \text{PSI} = 760 \times 0.019337 = 14.709 \]

The pressure in psi is 14.709 psi.

Example Calculation 2

Assume the following value:

Pressure in mmHg = 1013 mmHg

**Step 1:** Convert mmHg to psi:

\[ \text{PSI} = 1013 \times 0.019337 = 19.572 \]

The pressure in psi is 19.572 psi.
