'''Conversion of units''' is the conversion between different [[units of measurement]] for the same [[quantity]], typically through multiplicative '''conversion factors'''.

=== Process ===
 
The process of conversion depends on the specific situation and the intended purpose. This may be governed by regulation, [[contract]],  [[Technical specifications]] or other published [[Technical standard|standard]]s. Engineering judgment may include such factors as:
* The [[precision and accuracy]] of measurement and the associated [[uncertainty of measurement]]
* The statistical [[confidence interval]] or [[tolerance interval]] of the initial measurement
* The number of [[significant figures]] of the measurement
* The intended use of the measurement including the [[engineering tolerance]]s
* Historical definitions of the units and their derivatives used in old measurements e.g. International Foot vs US Survey Foot
 
Some conversions from one system of units to another need to be exact, without increasing or decreasing the precision of the first measurement. This is sometimes called ''soft conversion''. It does not involve changing  the physical configuration of the item being measured.
 
By contrast, a ''hard conversion'' or an ''adaptive conversion''  may not be exactly equivalent.  It changes the measurement to convenient and workable numbers and units in the new system. It sometimes involves a slightly different configuration, or size substitution, of the item. [[Real versus nominal value|Nominal values]] are sometimes allowed and used.
 
=== Multiplication factors ===
Conversion between units in the [[metric system]] can be discerned by their [[SI prefix|prefixes]] (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000&nbsp;grams, 1 milligram = 0.001&nbsp;grams) and are thus not listed in this article. Exceptions are made if the unit is commonly known by another name (for example, 1 micron = 10<sup>−6</sup> metre).
 
=== Table ordering ===
Within each table, the units are listed alphabetically, and the [[SI]] units (base or derived) are highlighted.
 
== Tables of conversion factors ==
This article gives lists of conversion factors for each of a number of physical quantities, which are listed in the index. For each physical quantity, a number of different units (some only of historical interest) are shown and expressed in terms of the corresponding SI unit.

===Mass===
Notes:
* See [[Weight]] for detail of mass/weight distinction and conversion.
* [[Avoirdupois]] is a system of mass based on a pound of 16 ounces, while [[Troy weight]] is the system of mass where 12 troy ounces equals one troy pound.
* In this table, the unit ''gee'' is used to denote [[standard gravity]] in order to avoid confusion with the "g" symbol for grams.
* In [[physics]], the [[pound (mass)|pound of mass]] is sometimes written '''lbm''' to distinguish it from the [[pound-force]] ('''lbf'''). It should not be read as the mongrel unit "pound metre".

Often, information entropy is measured in [[Claude Shannon|shannon]]s, whereas the (discrete) storage space of digital devices is measured in bits. Thus, uncompressed redundant data occupy more than one bit of storage per shannon of information entropy. The multiples of a bit listed above are usually used with this meaning. Other times the bit is used as a measure of information entropy and is thus a synonym of shannon.

Although the definitions for sievert (Sv) and gray (Gy) would seem to indicate that they measure the same quantities, this is not the case. The effect of receiving a certain dose of radiation (given as Gy) is variable and depends on many factors, thus a new unit was needed to denote the biological effectiveness of that dose on the body; this is known as the equivalent dose and is shown in Sv. The general relationship between absorbed dose and equivalent dose can be represented as
:''H = Q · D''
where ''H'' is the equivalent dose, ''D'' is the absorbed dose, and ''Q'' is a dimensionless quality factor. Thus, for any quantity of ''D'' measured in Gy, the numerical value for ''H'' measured in Sv may be different.<ref>{{citation | url=http://www.bipm.org/en/CIPM/db/2002/2/ | title=Comité international des poids et mesures, 2002, Recommendation 2 | accessdate=August 27, 2009}}</ref>
 
== Software tools ==
Home and office computers come with converters in bundled spreadsheet applications or can access free converters via the Internet. Units and measurements can be easily converted using these tools, but only if the units are explicitly defined and the conversion is compatible (e.g., cmHg to kPa).
 
===General commercial sources of converters===
*[[calculator|Advanced electronic calculators]] have unit-conversion functionality.
*[[Spreadsheet]] programs usually provide conversion [[function (computer science)|function]]s or [[formula]]s or the user can write their own.
*Commercial mathematical, scientific and technical applications often include converters.
 
==In fiction==
When a measure is converted to another unit in a fiction work like a novel or film, the value often loses meaning (as in [[numerology]]) or gets too many significant digits ("40 miles" turns into "64 km"). For this reason, authors sometimes choose numbers that can be converted easily. Most notably, distances measured in miles often begin with 3 or 5, so the value converted to km also has one significant digit (5 or 8).

The busy schedule of practically everybody in a certain household has made loved ones gatherings an occasion to appear forward to. These are the moments that are deemed priceless and need to hence be planned ahead creating sure that every person is comfy to exchange pleasantries with the loved ones.

A property that offers comfort to its members will be blessed by becoming the favored hang out of the loved ones members. My father discovered open in a new browser window by searching Google Books. Parents who have young children and who want to gather them inside the property as much as achievable need to make confident they make their surroundings comfy and cool.

One particular way of ensuring your familys comfort is by means of the installation of proper air ventilation and air conditioning systems inside the property. This will allow household members to unwind in the comfort of their rooms specially for the duration of summer time. Staying in a cool property will be a a lot relaxing and pleasant knowledge which will encourage family members members to keep indoors much more typically.

There are numerous kinds of air conditioning systems depending on your wants, your home size and your price range. There are individual air conditioners for each and every space and these can be easily buy from a nearby retailer and it is also simple to set up. Massive houses usually call for a centralized air conditioning system and its installation is much more complex and labor intensive. This variety of air conditioning method needs condensing units to maximize its advantages.

There are respected contractors specializing in the installation of air conditioning systems for each modest and huge properties. Just before choosing is best to get referrals for such contractors to ensure high quality operate.

You will only appreciate the value of property air conditioning for the duration of the hot months if you have to sweat it out even throughout early mornings. Practically nothing beats the comfort of staying inside a effectively ventilated home throughout this season.

Even so, you have to be very careful when buying house air conditioners. Clicking like i said probably provides suggestions you could tell your uncle. Whilst value is a consideration, you ought to also see to it that the air conditioner you are acquiring is power effective. Dig up more on our partner encyclopedia - Hit this hyperlink: 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable. You could be able to save hundred of dollars when getting the air conditioner but you would not want to feel doubly hot when you get your energy bill.

After installed, you also have to teach family members the appropriate way of employing your air conditioning system to cut down on power costs. There are easy methods to make your air conditioning system much more price effective like turning it off when the family members is not residence or when the climate is cool sufficient.

Suitable care of your air conditioning method like scheduled cleaning will also make it much more efficient for a long time..

If you have any questions regarding where and how you can make use of health insurance online, you could contact us at the web page.
