mbarg

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime
During the ship unloading the pressure in the tank will be main trained at maximum pressure of approximately 250 mbarg and LNG with a saturation pressure of 175 mbarg will be unloaded and all vapour generated will be recovered. Allowance has been made in the design to unload an LNG ship with a higher LNG saturation pressure (250 mbarg maximum). This will be accomplished by routing excess gas which exceeds the capacity of the boil-off gas compressors to the flare.

mbarg

unidad de medida, permanece inalterada

Pressure gauges often measure with reference to atmospheric pressure (which is around 1 bar). This is gauge pressure and denoted by barg, often written with no spaces, spoken "bar gauge", and sometimes using symbols such as 'bar(g)'. For example, if someone says that their car tyres are pressurised to 2.3 bar they usually mean bar gauge: the pressure in the tyre is really 3.3 bar, but only 2.3 bar above atmospheric, which is the scale a tyre gauge would read.

En el sistema internacional de unidades, la presión se mide en pascales.

no en bar ni mbar ni mbar

claro que se podría hacer la convesión, per les aseguro que quedaría un poco extraño en este tipo de texto.

neutral Teresa Mozo : no me parece que la g se use en espanol, sino mbar sobre la presión atmosférica. mbarg no es una unidad internacional

agree slothm : 100% correcto. Es la presión sobre la normal de uso en ductos, tubos, reactores, calderas, etc.

Bar (unidad de presión)

Bar

The unit of pressure that is approximately equal to atmospheric pressure (0.987 standard atmospheres). Where bar is suffixed with the letter g, such as in barg or mbarg, the pressure being referred to is gauge pressure, i.e. relative to atmospheric pressure. One millibar (mbarg) equals 0.001 bar.

mbar

Desde la adopción de Sistema Internacional de Unidades, sólo deben usarse los símbolos acompañados por los sufijos que indiquen múltiplos y submúltiplos decimales. Entonces, en este caso se debe usar *mbar* donde *bar* es la unidad de presión *m* es el prefijo que equivale a *mili*, milibar, 1000 veces menor que la unidad.

Por último: va todo con minúsculas, sin punto al final y, desde la adopción del Sistema Internacional, sin g al final.

agree Teresa Mozo : creo que tienes razón, pero entonces habría que especificar que es sobre la presión atmosférica, porque no es una presión absoluta
