Measurement Methods for Gross and Fine Vacuum

Gases exert forces on the walls of a closed volume. These result from collisions of the moving molecules with the walls. Pressure is defined as the ratio of normal force f on a plane surface portion A. The resulting unit according to the SI system is  [Pg.161]

The sum of all molecular collision forces related to the unit area is called total pressure, the proportional pressure of a gas species is named partial pressure . The sum of the partial pressures of all gas species present in the closed volume yields the total pressure (Dalton s law). [Pg.161]

According to the SI system the unit of pressure is Pascal . Additionally the units bar (=10 Pa) respectively mbar (=100 Pa) are in use and accepted. [Pg.161]

For a direct pressure measurement, the difference between the pressure to be measured and a known reference pressure is measured. Because of this measurement method engineers specify three different kinds of pressure (see DIN 1314)  [Pg.161]

In vacuum technology normally the absolute pressure is stated. To generate Zero pressure, a reference vacuum has to be generated with a pressure small compared to the pressure to be measured (there is no empty space in practice). [Pg.161]
