Factor1 atm = 1013250 dyn/cm²
Converter
atm
Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7
Result
dyn/cm²
Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
dyn/cm² = atm × 1013250
Multiply any value in standard atmospheres by 1013250 to obtain the value in dynes per square centimetre.
Worked example
Convert 1 atm to dyn/cm².
- 01Start with 1 atm.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 1013250 = 1.01325e+6 dyn/cm².
Result1 atm = 1.01325e+6 dyn/cm²

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from atm to dyn/cm²?
1 atm equals 1013250 dyn/cm². To convert, multiply the value in standard atmospheres by 1013250.
How do I convert 1 atm to dyn/cm²?
1 atm = 1.01325e+6 dyn/cm². For any value, multiply by 1013250.
How do I convert dyn/cm² back to atm?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 9.869233e-7. So 1 dyn/cm² = 9.86923e-7 atm.
When would I need to convert standard atmosphere to dyne per square centimetre?
Pressure conversions between atm and dyn/cm² are common when working with mixed-vendor instrumentation, when piping codes use different units to process datasheets, or when converting field readings into SI for hydraulic calculations.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
