About Converting Meter of waters to Nanopascals
Meter of water and Nanopascal both show up on pressure gauges — psi is standard on US tire and tool specifications, while bar is the everyday pressure unit across most of the rest of the world. Specifically: Meter of water column, and nanopascal is 1e-9 pascal units.
Formula
nanopascals = meter of waters × 9.80665e+12
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 meter of water equals 9806.65 base units, and 1 nanopascal equals 1e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct meter of water-to-nanopascal factor of 9.80665e+12.
Simple example
1 mH2O × 9.80665e+12 = 9.80665e+12 nPa
1 meter of water = 9.80665e+12 nanopascals.
Real-world example
35 mH2O × 9.80665e+12 = 3.432328e+14 nPa
35 meter of waters = 3.432328e+14 nanopascals.
