why use MMWC unit..

Answer / khushwant

mmWC = millimeter of water column.
The unit is used to measure pressure in low range.
It means that tank with a height of 10m filled with water.
then pressure in that tank will be 10000mmWC.
because density of water is 1.

Answer / rohan

That is correct.but why we use this unit.what is the basic
reason of using 'mmwc'

Is This Answer Correct ?

20 Yes

5 No

why use MMWC unit..

Answer / rohan

pressure p = height * sp.gravity * density
Density of water is unity.For this reason low pressure
measurement is done using mmwc unit.

Is This Answer Correct ?

19 Yes

why use MMWC unit..

Answer / jagdish

pressure P = height*acc. due to gravity* density

density of water is unity. due to this a small pressure
change gives large displacement in water colum and thus we
get accurate reading. so used mmWC.
