About Converting Centipascals to Technical atmospheres
Centipascal and Technical atmosphere both measure a quantity used in structural or mechanical engineering — commonly stress, pressure, force, torque, power, or energy — where converting between the unit conventions used in different regions, industries, or equipment specifications is a routine part of design work. Specifically: Centipascal is 0.01 pascal units, and technical atmosphere is kilogram-force per square centimeter.
Formula
technical atmospheres = centipascals × 1.019716e-7
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centipascal equals 0.01 base units, and 1 technical atmosphere equals 98066.5 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centipascal-to-technical atmosphere factor of 1.019716e-7.
Simple example
1 cPa × 1.019716e-7 = 1.019716e-7 at
1 centipascal = 1.019716e-7 technical atmospheres.
Real-world example
100 cPa × 1.019716e-7 = 0.0000101972 at
100 centipascals = 0.0000101972 technical atmospheres.

Frequently asked questions
How many technical atmospheres are in 1 centipascal?
1 centipascal equals 1.019716e-7 technical atmospheres, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centipascal to technical atmosphere?
Multiply the centipascal value by 1.019716e-7. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert technical atmosphere back to centipascal?
Use the reverse factor: 1 technical atmosphere equals 9,806,650 centipascals. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centipascal?
Centipascal (cPa) is a unit of engineering.
What is a technical atmosphere?
Technical atmosphere (at) is a unit of engineering.
Is the centipascal to technical atmosphere conversion exact?
Yes. Both centipascal and technical atmosphere are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1.019716e-7 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
Why do engineering unit conventions vary so much by region and industry?
Pressure, force, and stress can be expressed in metric (pascal, newton), US customary (psi, pound-force), or older and industry-specific units (atmosphere, torr, kip) depending on the country, industry, and even the equipment manufacturer, which is why engineers routinely need to convert between them when working across specs from different sources.
