Перевод единиц измерения — преобразование физической величины из одной единицы измерения в другую путём умножения на соответствующий коэффициент, связывающий единицы измерения.

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 standards. Engineering judgment may include such factors as:

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. Nominal values are sometimes allowed and used.

Множители

Conversion between units in the metric system can be discerned by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 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 = 106 metre).

Table ordering

Within each table, the units are listed alphabetically, and the SI units (base or derived) are highlighted.

Таблица множителей

Ниже приведён список множителей, связывающих между собой единицы измерения различных физических величин. Для каждой физической величины приведено множество единиц измерения, многие из которых имеют лишь исторический интерес. Для каждой единицы измерения указана связь с единицами измерения системы СИ.

Mass

Notes:
  • See Weight for detail of mass/weight distinction and conversion.
  • 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 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 shannons, 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.

Luminous intensity

The candela is the preferred nomenclature for the SI unit.
Luminous intensity
Name of unit Symbol Definition Relation to SI units
candela (SI base unit); candle cd The luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 5401012 hertz and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian.[1] = 1 cd
candlepower (new) cp cd The use of candlepower as a unit is discouraged due to its ambiguity. = 1 cd
candlepower (old, pre-1948) cp Varies and is poorly reproducible.[33] Approximately 0.981 cd.[14] 0.981 cd

Radiation - source activity
Radioactivity
Name of unit Symbol Definition Relation to SI units
becquerel (SI unit) Bq Number of disintegrations per second = 1 Bq = 1/s
curie Ci 3.71010 Bq = 3.71010 Bq [34]
rutherford (H) rd 1 MBq = 1106 Bq


Please note that although becquerel (Bq) and hertz (Hz) both ultimately refer to the same SI base unit (s1), Hz is used only for periodic phenomena, and Bq is only used for stochastic processes associated with radioactivity.[35]

Radiation - exposure
Radiation - exposure
Name of unit Symbol Definition Relation to SI units
roentgen R 1 R 2.5810-4 C/kg[31] = 2.5810-4 C/kg


The roentgen is not a SI unit and the NIST strongly discourages its continued use.[36]

Radiation - absorbed dose
Name of unit Symbol Definition Relation to SI units
gray (SI unit) Gy 1 J/kg = 1 m2/s2 [37] = 1 Gy
rad rad 0.01 Gy[31] = 0.01 Gy


Radiation - equivalent dose
Radiation - equivalent dose
Name of unit Symbol Definition Relation to SI units
Rntgen equivalent man rem 0.01 Sv = 0.01 Sv
sievert (SI unit) Sv 1 J/kg[35] = 1 Sv


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.[38]

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).
