Millimeters, water gauge, also known as millimetres water or millimetres water column and abbreviated to mm wg, mm H2O or mm wc respectively, is a unit of pressure. It is the pressure required to support a water column of the specified height (sometimes called 'head' of water). It is equivalent to 9.80665 Pa. In limited and largely historic contexts it may vary with temperature, using the equation: : P = ρ·g·h/1000 : where : P: pressure in Pa : ρ: density of water (1000 kg/m3 at 4°C) : g: acceleration due to gravity (conventionally 9.80665 m/s2 but sometimes locally determined) : h: water height in millimetres The unit is often used to describe how much water rainwear or other outerwear can take or how much water a tent can resist without leaking. == See also == * Centimetre of water de:Meter Wassersäule 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Millimeters, water gauge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
