Unit Definitions
What is a Torr (Torr)?
The Torr is a unit of pressure defined as 1/760 of standard atmospheric pressure.
History
Named after Evangelista Torricelli, the Torr has its roots in barometric pressure measurements. It was historically used in the context of mercury barometers.
Current Use
Today, Torr is commonly used in vacuum measurements and in the fields of physics and engineering.
What is a Bar (bar)?
The bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 pascals.
History
The bar was introduced in the 19th century by the French physicist Pierre-Simon Laplace. It was established to provide a convenient unit for expressing atmospheric pressure.
Current Use
Currently, the bar is widely used in various scientific fields, including meteorology and engineering, as well as in automotive tire pressure measurements.
