To express air pressure, he used the bar, which is a metric unit of pressure; one bar is slightly less than the Standard Atmospheric Pressure at sea level, which is defined as 1.01325 bar or about 14.7 pounds per square inch. The millibar (mbar) is equal to one-thousandth of a bar, or 1,000 dynes per square centimeter.
