Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on
convert-me.com FaceBook pageThank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Hi there,
I came across the value psia, i think it is a psi but with a different meaning.
Does anybody know what it is?

psi-gauge. Pressure is measured either "gauge" or "absolute."
Gauge is pressure is pressure relative to the current atmospheric pressure, which is about 14.7 psi at sea level.
Absolute pressure is measured relative to vacuum, and is typically about 14.7 psi higher
