Kết quả
Áp lực tuyệt đối
Referenced to perfect vacuum
Absolute pressure starts at zero vacuum, so it is useful when atmospheric variation matters. Typical label: PSIA.
Referenced to local atmosphere
Gauge pressure shows how much pressure is above or below the surrounding air. Typical label: PSIG.
Referenced to another process point
Differential pressure is the difference between two measured points. Typical label: PSID.
Comparison
Absolute vs. Gauge vs. Differential Pressure
The difference is the reference point. That reference determines how the pressure is measured, displayed, and used in real systems.
| Loại áp lực | Điểm tham chiếu | Common Label | Typical Uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| Áp lực tuyệt đối | Perfect vacuum | PSIA | Vacuum systems, gas laws, altitude-sensitive measurement |
| Áp suất đo | Atmospheric pressure | PSIG | Compressors, hydraulics, pneumatics, everyday industrial measurement |
| Áp lực khác biệt | Another process point | PSID | Filters, flow measurement, tank level, room pressurization |

When to use each pressure type
Use absolute pressure when
You need a true pressure value relative to vacuum, especially in vacuum equipment, gas calculations, and high-accuracy process work.
Use gauge pressure when
You want to know pressure relative to surrounding air, such as in air compressors, pumps, hydraulic systems, and most routine plant measurements.
Use differential pressure when
You need to compare pressure between two points, such as across a filter, orifice, heat exchanger, clean room, or sealed tank system.

Câu hỏi thường gặp
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between absolute pressure and gauge pressure?
Absolute pressure is measured from perfect vacuum. Gauge pressure is measured from the surrounding atmospheric pressure.
Áp suất đo có thể âm?
Yes. If the measured pressure is below atmospheric pressure, the gauge pressure is negative.
What does differential pressure mean?
Differential pressure is the pressure difference between two points. It is often used for filter monitoring, flow measurement, and level measurement in closed tanks.
Why is atmospheric pressure important in pressure conversion?
Because gauge pressure uses atmosphere as the reference. To convert correctly between gauge and absolute pressure, you need atmospheric pressure.
What are PSIA, PSIG, and PSID?
PSIA means pounds per square inch absolute. PSIG means pounds per square inch gauge. PSID means pounds per square inch differential.
