STP - Standard Temperature and Pressure

STP is commonly used to define standard conditions for temperature and pressure which is important for the measurements and documentation of chemical and physical processes:

STP - Standard Temperature and Pressure - is defined by IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) as air at 0oC (273.15 K, 32 oF) and 105 pascals STP - commonly used in the Imperial and USA system of units - as air at 60 oF (520 oR) and 14.696 psia (15.6oC, 1 atm)

Note that the earlier IUAPC definition of STP to 273.15 K and 1 atm (1.01325 105 Pa) is discontinued. 1 Pa = 10-6 N/mm2 = 10-5 bar = 0.1020 kp/m2 = 1.02x10-4 m H2O = 9.869x10-6 atm = 1.45x10-4 psi (lbf/in2)

NTP - Normal Temperature and Pressure


NTP is commonly used as a standard condition for testing and documentation of fan capacities:

NTP - Normal Temperature and Pressure - is defined as air at 20oC (293.15 K, 68oF) and 1 atm (101.325 kN/m2, 101.325 kPa, 14.7 psia, 0 psig, 29.92 in Hg, 760 torr). Density 1.204 kg/m3 (0.075 pounds per cubic foot)

SATP - Standard Ambient Temperature and Pressure


SATP - Standard Ambient Temperature and Pressure is also used in chemistry as a reference:

SATP - Standard Ambient Temperature and Pressure is a reference with temperature of 25 degC (298.15 K) and pressure of 101 kPa.

ISA - International Standard Atmosphere


ISA - International Standard Atmosphere is used as a reference to aircraft performance:

ISA - International Standard Atmosphere is defined to 101.325 kPa, 15 degC and 0% humidity.

ICAO Standard Atmosphere


Standard model of the atmosphere adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO):

Atmospheric pressure: 760 mmHg = 14.7 lbs-force/sq inch Temperature: 15oC = 288.15 K = 59oF
