how do i convert 1 bar water pressure to feet head?

Question

i need to work out why a shower is not working correctly i think the cold water pressure is higher than the hot

Answer 1

1 bar = 33.455 256 555 foot of head.

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure due to the weight of a fluid.
P=ρ .g.h

where:
ρ (rho) is the density of the fluid (i.e. the practical density of fresh water is 1000 kg/m3);
g is the acceleration due to gravity (approx. 9.81 m/s2 on Earth's surface);
h is the height of the fluid column (in meters. Feet can be used if the rest of the units used in the equation are defined in feet).

so, naturally what you are thinking is right.Cold water is more dencer than hot water.

1 bar = 1x10^5 Pa and 1 atm = 101325 Pa therefore 1 bar = 0.987 atm _______ OK, got it. Just for future reference, you can clarify a question using the "add details" button in the stick note in the top right rather than posting it as the answer to a different question :) With a signficant increase in height, water pressure will change signficantly. Basically, that extra 33-foot column of water weighs quite a bit and is pushing down on things under it. The density of water is 1 g/cm^3 = 0.001 kg/cm^3. 33 feet = approx. 1,000 cm. A 1,000 cm high column of water with one cm^2 cross-secional area would weigh about 1kg, adding 1kg/cm^2. 1kg/cm^2 = 1.097 bar. So being three stories up would add just about 1 bar of water pressure. I'm not sure how these water tank assemblies work, but it seems to me that if you put the tank three stories up and didn't pressurize it you would have about 1 bar of water pressure at the bottom. If you pressurized the tank so you had 1 bar of water pressure at the top, you'd have 2 bars down where your dishwasher is.

Answer 4

1 bar (1 atmosphere at sea level) also equals 14.7 psi. For every foot of elevation water exerts approximately .43 psi. So, 1 bar would be equal to 14.7/.43=34 feet (assuming fresh water, 33 feet if sea water). You could work it backwards and say that 1 ft of elevation = .0294 bar.

Answer 5

Well Andy, if your getting this anal in analizing your shower, I'm sure you'll want to crawl through your attic, measuring the length of straight pipe going to the shower and counting all the fittings it goes through. You never know when that extra elbow the plumber threw in may upset the whole relationship of hot to cold in the shower!

Answer 6

1 bar = 33.455256 feet of water

Answer 7

1 bar=1 atmosphere= 76mm mercury in barometer=1.01*10^something pascal
