How to Convert 16 Bar to Megapascals

To convert, start with the base conversion factor:

1 Bar = 0.1 Megapascals

Now, we can multiply both sides by 16 to find the result for your value:

(1 × 16) bar = (0.1 × 16) MPa
16 bar = 1.600000 MPa

Conversion Factors

1 Bar = 0.1 Megapascals

1 Megapascal = 10 Bar

Formula:

Megapascals = Bar × 0.1

Calculation:

16 bar × 0.1 = 1.600000 MPa

About the Bar

The bar is a metric unit of pressure, but not part of the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as exactly 100,000 Pa, and is slightly less than the average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level. For a more detailed history, read more on Wikipedia.
