How Do You Calculate Barometric Pressure?
The easiest way to calculate the barometric pressure of an area is to use a high quality, calibrated barometer. If you do not own one of these expensive items, here is a way you can calculate the pressure using a few simple pieces of data you can get from your local weather station. By following these steps, you will be able to substitute values into the standard equation to calculate barometric pressure and solve it to find the pressure for any given geographical area. Convert the temperature of the location you are trying to find the barometric pressure for into Kelvins. To find what the temperature in Celsius is in Kelvins, take the number of degrees in Celsius and add 273.15. So, 20 degrees Celsius (C) + 273.15 = 293.15. Therefore, 20 degrees Celsius is equal to 293.15 Kelvin(K). The formula looks like this: K = C + 273.15 To find what a location’s temperature in Fahrenheit is in Kelvins, convert the Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius. You can do this by subtracting 32 from the Fahr
