	Pound-force per square inch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pound-force per square inch (symbol: lbf/in²) is a non-SI unit of pressure.
		The language dependent abbreviation psi is common in regions where English is spoken.
		At 1 lbf/in², a force of one pound-force is applied to an area of one square inch.

	Submarine Hydraulic Systems - Chapter 1
		Therefore, for unconfined liquids, that is, liquids in open containers, the pressure in pounds per square inch exerted by the liquid on the bottom of the container is equal to the weight of the liquid on each square inch of the bottom of the container.
		The tank is vented to the atmosphere; thus atmospheric pressure (14.7 pounds per square inch) forces the oil into the inlet, or suction, side of the pump, in accordance with the principle explained in connection with Figure 1-14.
		Since the piston in the actuating cylinder presents an area of 2 square inches to the fluid -twice as great as the area presented by the pump piston- the total force acting against the piston of the actuating cylinder is 200 pounds, enough to overcome the resistance of the loading spring and close the door.

		Pounds-force per square inch (lbf/in² or PSI) is a non-SI unit of pressure.
		For technical accuracy, psi must be expressed as psig (pounds-force per square inch gauge) or psia (pounds-force per square inch absolute; that is, gauge pressure plus local atmospheric pressure).
		Gauge pressure can be further subdivided into psivg (psi vented gauge) and psisg (psi sealed gauge), the difference being that psisg measures the difference in psi between a chamber of air sealed at atmospheric pressure and the pressure at the measuring point, while psivg measures the difference between the measuring point and the local pressure.

		In the case of water.5 millimeter is equal to.0014 pound per square inch.
		If we now apply a pressure of 36 millionths of a pound per square inch to the surface of the water in the closed container, the water level will fall.00.5 inch and will flow through the transparent tube until the level rises an equal amount in the opposite container.
		Hence a bubble displacement of 1/8 inch indicates a change in pressure of a millionth of a pound per square inch.

	Re: what is the difference between pressure and force?
		If that piece of brick were 5 inches square, its area would be 25 square inches: the pressure applied to the sidewalk would be 175 pounds/25 square inches = 7 pounds per square inch.
		If a liquid has a pressure of one pound per square inch, every square inch of surface it presses against has one pound of force spread over it.
		The one pound per square inch from before pushing on ten square inches of surface adds up to a total force of ten pounds trying to push whatever the surface is attached to.

		The work covered by this report was undertaken in connection with a general investigation of fuel injection engine principles as applied to engines for aircraft propulsion, the specific purpose being to obtain information on the coefficient of discharge of small round orifices suitable for use as fuel injection nozzles.
		Values for the coefficient were determined for the more important conditions of engine service such as discharge under pressures up to 8,000 pounds per square inch, at temperatures between 80 degrees and 180 degrees F. And into air compressed to pressures up to 1,000 pounds per square inch.
		The results show that the coefficient ranges between 0.62 and 0.88 for the different test conditions between 1,000 and 8,000 pounds per square inch hydraulic pressure.

		And since weight exerts pressure downward, you could put a pressure gauge in the boiler and read the weight of the column of water in "pounds per square inch." This, by the way, is the same pressure that affects deep-sea divers.
		The answer is simple: A column of water 2.31 feet high (that’s about 28 inches) will exert on pound per square inch (psi) of pressure down on the bottom.
		If the water is 2.31 feet deep, there’s going to be one pound per square inch of pressure at the bottom.

		The larger snake weighed 5,500 pounds and operated at peak at 600 horsepower.

		As a result, the system operated at high pressure (5,000 pounds per square inch) and had a fast frequency response more common to aerospace applications than industrial ones.
