Understanding the Units
What is a Torr?
One torr equals exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, or about 133.322 pascals — close to one millimeter of mercury.
Named after Evangelista Torricelli (1608–1647), inventor of the barometer.
Common contexts: vacuum technology, medical blood pressure.
What is a Kilograms per Square Centimeter?
One kilogram-force per square centimeter equals exactly 98,066.5 pascals, very close to one technical atmosphere.
Common contexts: legacy industrial pressure (Europe, Asia).
