Bars to kilopascals Conversion

1 bars (bar) is equal to 100 kilopascals (kPa).

1 bar = 100 kPa

or

1 kPa = 0.01 bar

Formula

To convert a pressure from bars (bar) to kilopascals (kPa), multiply the pressure in bars by 100

p(kPa) = p(bar) × 100

Examples:

Convert 5 bars to kilopascals:

p(kPa) = 5bar × 100 = 500 kPa
