n: total pressure measured from an absolute vacuum. It equals the sum of the gauge pressure and the atmospheric pressure. Expressed in pounds per square inch.

the reading of gauge pressure plus the atmospheric pressure.

n: 1. the amount of pressure exerted on the interior walls of a vessel by the fluid contained in it (as indicated by a pressure gauge). It is expressed in pounds per square inch gauge or in kilo- pascals. Gauge pressure plus atmospheric pressure equals absolute pressure. 2. pressure measured relative to atmospheric pressure considered as zero.

pressure read by a gauge that is set to zero at atmospheric pressure.
