Foot Water (4°c)
Foot water (4°C), symbol ftAq, is a unit of pressure representing the height of a water column at 4°C that exerts a specific pressure.
History/Origin
The foot water (4°C) has been used historically in engineering and scientific contexts to measure pressure, especially in water-related applications, as an alternative to other pressure units like inches of water or meters of water. Its usage dates back to traditional measurements in hydraulic and civil engineering.
Current Use
Today, foot water (4°C) is primarily used in specialized fields such as hydrology, water management, and engineering to measure low pressures, particularly in systems involving water flow and pressure head calculations.
Atmosphere Technical
The atmosphere technical (at) is a unit of pressure defined as exactly 101,325 pascals, representing the average atmospheric pressure at sea level.
History/Origin
The atmosphere technical was established as a standard unit of pressure in the early 20th century to facilitate scientific and engineering calculations involving atmospheric pressure, aligning with the international standard atmosphere (ISA).
Current Use
It is primarily used in scientific, meteorological, and engineering contexts to quantify atmospheric pressure, especially in fields requiring standardized pressure measurements at sea level.
