Im doing a research paper and it says Rudolf Diesel got a concept to make a motor and it says that the motor just brings in air and compresses it to about 200 bar. What does bar mean in that? ??? ???TIA<br>SD03

 

Bar: A unit of pressure equal to 1,000,000 Dynes / cm2 , 0.99 atmospheres. A measurement of pressure, 100kPa = 1 bar. This corresponds very closely to 1 atmosphere and the two are often confused. 1 bar = 14.504 psi. 1 atmosphere = 14.7 psi.

Are those measurement in psia or psig?<br><br>throwinginabitextraShortround out

 

OK I heard that 1 bar= 14.2 psi. thanks for the help ya'll<br>SD03

 

Shortround,<br> I think he is talking about ... PE-psi .<br><br>I crack myself up ... simple minded I guess.<br><br>PISTOL

 

BarG is what the rest of the world uses to measure pressure instead of PsiG. I work with guys from all over the world and they gave me the simple way to convert. Add a 0 then 1/2 again as much. It's pretty close and I don't have to use my fingers and toes or a calculator. ???

 

There's a neat little program called &quot;Convert.exe&quot; available here. Download Convert It's freeware. It converts pretty much anything you can think of.

SD03, last time I checked you and BB had a lot more than 14.2 bars in Sugarland <br>How the heck do you get a .2 bar :<br><br>wk

 

BB told me that a bar= 14.2 or something. he wasnt sure<br>

 

TXRAM2, I don't think he got it.

 

No I dont get it Im still tired. (some girls have to many [censored] problems.)
You talking about drinkin' bars
