What this calculator does
Converts a measurement given in bars into standard atmospheres using the defined conversion factor.
What your result means
The same quantity expressed in atm instead of bar. Nothing about the measurement itself changes.
Formula and working
atm = bar × 0.9869232667
- 1
Start with your value
100 bar

Result
100 bar = 98.692327 atm
Frequently asked questions
Symbols and assumptions
- bar
- Input unit — bar
- atm
- Output unit — standard atmosphere
- Pa
- Base unit used internally for pressure and stress
- • Both units measure pressure and stress, so the physical quantity is unchanged by the conversion.
- • The relationship is exactly linear: 1 bar = 0.9869232667 atm.
- • Values are converted through the SI base unit for this quantity rather than pair by pair.

- • A unit conversion changes how a number is expressed, not how it was measured — the answer can never be more accurate than the value entered.
- • Displayed figures are rounded for readability; the full stored precision of the atm value is used in every onward calculation.
