Manometric units of pressure seeAlso Manometric units are units such as millimetres of mercury or centimetres of water that depend on an assumed density of a fluid and an assumed acceleration due to gravity.
Manometric measurement is the subject of pressure head calculations.
So, for example, pressure head might be written "742.2 mm Hg " or "4.2 in H 2 O at 59 °F" for measurements taken with mercury or water as the manometric fluid, respectively.
Although no longer preferred, these manometric units are still encountered in many fields.
