Notes:
* 101.325 kPa = 1 atmosphere = 1.01325 bar ≈ 14.696 psi
* 100.000 kPa = 1 bar ≈ 14.504 psi
* 14.503 psi ≈ 750 mmHg ≈ 100.0 kPa ≈ 1 bar
* 14.696 psi ≈ 1 atm = 101.325 kPa
* 14.73 psi ≈ 30 inHg ≈ 1.0156 bar ≈ 101.560 kPa
* All pressures are absolute pressures (not gauge pressures)
* 59 °F = 15 °C
* 60 °F ≈ 15.6 °C
* dry = 0 percent relative humidity = 0 % RH
The full names of the entities listed in Table 1:
*IUPAC: [[International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry]]
*NIST: [[National Institute of Standards and Technology]]
*ISA: [[ICAO]]'s [[International Standard Atmosphere]]
*ISO: [[International Organization for Standardization]]
*EEA: [[European Environment Agency]]
*EGIA: Electricity and Gas Inspection Act (of Canada)
*EPA: [[United States Environmental Protection Agency]]
*SATP: Standard Ambient Pressure and Temperature
*CAGI: [[Compressed Air and Gas Institute]]
*SPE:  [[Society of Petroleum Engineers]]
*OSHA: U.S. [[Occupational Safety and Health Administration]]
*SCAQMD: California's South Coast Air Quality Management District
*OPEC: [[Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries]]
*EIA: U.S. [[Energy Information Administration]]
*Std. Metro: U.S. Army's Standard Metro (used in ballistics)
*AMCA: [http://www.amca.org Air Movement and Control Association]  This AMCA standard applies only to air.
Let's see: [[User:Bduke|Bduke]] (an administrator), [[User:Beetstra|Beetstra]] (an administrator), [[User:Samw|Samw]], [[User:Kkmurray|Kkmurray]] and [[User:mbeychok]] have all said that the original version of the table was better than the revised version, and [[User:Itub|Itub]] thought that the revised version has too many columns. Therefore, I am reverting the table to the original version. I am also leaving the list of entities full names  as is rather than converting them to internal links because they make a much better impact on readers that way as opposed to having to visit each of the links.
Beetstra (an administrator) also thought the "Expandsect" template was not needed, so I am removing it.
It is a bit much to post a "Clarify me" template for the four words "For a great many years ... ". Its perfectly clear what that means. Does one have to enter an exact number of years? That is really not needed.

Selecting one's own color for links to non-exiting articles

  • Click on your "my preferences" tab at the top of the CZ page.
  • Then click on your "skin" tab and check to see which skin you are using. The skin choices are: chick, classic, cologne blue, monobook, myskin, nostalgia, pinkwich5 and simple.
  • Once you have identified the skin you are using, then go to [[User:Your name/yourskin.css]]. When writing "yourskin.css", be sure to use all lowercase even though the list of skins uses some capitalization.
  • Once you are at [[User:Yourname/yourskin.css]], click on the edit tab at the page top. Then add this code:    a.new { color:#XXXXXX; }      where XXXXXX is the hex number for the color you want to use. Then save the page.
  • Then it is very important to refresh your cache by:
    • IE: hold Ctrl while clicking Refresh, or press Ctrl-F5
    • Mozilla / Firefox / Safari: hold down Shift while clicking Reload, or press Ctrl-Shift-R (Cmd-Shift-R on Apple Mac);
    • Konqueror:: Simply click the Reload button, or press F5;
    • Opera: You may need to completely clear their cache in Tools→Preferences.
