Formula
Formula
Pa = dyn/cm² × 0.1
Multiply any value in dynes per square centimetre by 0.1 to obtain the value in pascals.
Worked example
Convert 1000 dyn/cm² to Pa.
- 01Start with 1000 dyn/cm².
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.1 = 100 Pa.
Result1000 dyn/cm² = 100 Pa

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from dyn/cm² to Pa?
1 dyn/cm² equals 0.1 Pa. To convert, multiply the value in dynes per square centimetre by 0.1.
How do I convert 1 dyn/cm² to Pa?
1 dyn/cm² = 0.1 Pa. For any value, multiply by 0.1.
How do I convert Pa back to dyn/cm²?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 10. So 1 Pa = 10 dyn/cm².
When would I need to convert dyne per square centimetre to pascal?
Pressure conversions between dyn/cm² and Pa 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).
