Let’s go through each of the conversions one by one, explaining the steps involved:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
a) 80 psig to psia and to atmosphere<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- psig to psia<\/strong>:
To convert from psig (pounds per square inch gauge)<\/strong> to psia (pounds per square inch absolute)<\/strong>, we need to add the barometric pressure<\/strong> (14.7 psia). The equation is: psia=psig+atmospheric\u00a0pressure\\text{psia} = \\text{psig} + \\text{atmospheric pressure}psia=psig+atmospheric\u00a0pressure So: 80\u2009psig+14.7\u2009psia=94.7\u2009psia80 \\, \\text{psig} + 14.7 \\, \\text{psia} = 94.7 \\, \\text{psia}80psig+14.7psia=94.7psia Therefore, 80 psig is equivalent to 94.7 psia.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- psia to atmosphere<\/strong>:
1 atmosphere (atm) is equal to 14.7 psia<\/strong>. To convert from psia<\/strong> to atmospheres<\/strong>, we divide by 14.7: 94.7\u2009psia14.7\u2009psia\/atm=6.44\u2009atm\\frac{94.7 \\, \\text{psia}}{14.7 \\, \\text{psia\/atm}} = 6.44 \\, \\text{atm}14.7psia\/atm94.7psia\u200b=6.44atm Therefore, 80 psig is equivalent to 6.44 atm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nb) 20 in. Hg vacuum to in Hg abs and to psia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- in Hg vacuum to in Hg abs<\/strong>:
To convert from in Hg vacuum<\/strong> to in Hg absolute<\/strong>, we subtract the vacuum pressure from standard atmospheric pressure, which is 29.92 in Hg. The formula is: in\u00a0Hg\u00a0abs=29.92\u2009in\u00a0Hg\u221220\u2009in\u00a0Hg\u00a0vacuum\\text{in Hg abs} = 29.92 \\, \\text{in Hg} – 20 \\, \\text{in Hg vacuum}in\u00a0Hg\u00a0abs=29.92in\u00a0Hg\u221220in\u00a0Hg\u00a0vacuum So: 29.92\u2009in\u00a0Hg\u221220\u2009in\u00a0Hg=9.92\u2009in\u00a0Hg\u00a0abs29.92 \\, \\text{in Hg} – 20 \\, \\text{in Hg} = 9.92 \\, \\text{in Hg abs}29.92in\u00a0Hg\u221220in\u00a0Hg=9.92in\u00a0Hg\u00a0abs Therefore, 20 in. Hg vacuum is equivalent to 9.92 in. Hg absolute.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- in Hg abs to psia<\/strong>:
1 in Hg is equal to 0.4912 psia. To convert 9.92 in. Hg absolute to psia: 9.92\u2009in\u00a0Hg\u00a0abs\u00d70.4912\u2009psia\/in\u00a0Hg=4.87\u2009psia9.92 \\, \\text{in Hg abs} \\times 0.4912 \\, \\text{psia\/in Hg} = 4.87 \\, \\text{psia}9.92in\u00a0Hg\u00a0abs\u00d70.4912psia\/in\u00a0Hg=4.87psia Therefore, 20 in. Hg vacuum is equivalent to 4.87 psia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nc) 10 psia to psi vacuum and to Pa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- psia to psi vacuum<\/strong>:
To convert from psia<\/strong> to psi vacuum<\/strong>, we subtract the absolute pressure from atmospheric pressure (14.7 psia): psi\u00a0vacuum=14.7\u2009psia\u221210\u2009psia\\text{psi vacuum} = 14.7 \\, \\text{psia} – 10 \\, \\text{psia}psi\u00a0vacuum=14.7psia\u221210psia So: 14.7\u2009psia\u221210\u2009psia=4.7\u2009psi\u00a0vacuum14.7 \\, \\text{psia} – 10 \\, \\text{psia} = 4.7 \\, \\text{psi vacuum}14.7psia\u221210psia=4.7psi\u00a0vacuum Therefore, 10 psia is equivalent to 4.7 psi vacuum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- psia to Pa<\/strong>:
1 psia is equal to 6894.76 Pa<\/strong> (since 1 psi = 6894.76 Pa). To convert 10 psia to Pascals: 10\u2009psia\u00d76894.76\u2009Pa\/psia=68,947.6\u2009Pa10 \\, \\text{psia} \\times 6894.76 \\, \\text{Pa\/psia} = 68,947.6 \\, \\text{Pa}10psia\u00d76894.76Pa\/psia=68,947.6Pa Therefore, 10 psia is equivalent to 68,947.6 Pa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

To convert from psia<\/strong> to psi vacuum<\/strong>, we subtract the absolute pressure from atmospheric pressure (14.7 psia): psi\u00a0vacuum=14.7\u2009psia\u221210\u2009psia\\text{psi vacuum} = 14.7 \\, \\text{psia} – 10 \\, \\text{psia}psi\u00a0vacuum=14.7psia\u221210psia So: 14.7\u2009psia\u221210\u2009psia=4.7\u2009psi\u00a0vacuum14.7 \\, \\text{psia} – 10 \\, \\text{psia} = 4.7 \\, \\text{psi vacuum}14.7psia\u221210psia=4.7psi\u00a0vacuum Therefore, 10 psia is equivalent to 4.7 psi vacuum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
1 psia is equal to 6894.76 Pa<\/strong> (since 1 psi = 6894.76 Pa). To convert 10 psia to Pascals: 10\u2009psia\u00d76894.76\u2009Pa\/psia=68,947.6\u2009Pa10 \\, \\text{psia} \\times 6894.76 \\, \\text{Pa\/psia} = 68,947.6 \\, \\text{Pa}10psia\u00d76894.76Pa\/psia=68,947.6Pa Therefore, 10 psia is equivalent to 68,947.6 Pa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
