Thebarye (symbol: Ba), or sometimesbarad,barrie,bary,baryd,baryed, orbarie, is thecentimetre–gram–second (CGS) unit ofpressure. It is equal to 1 dyne per squarecentimetre or 1 microbar.[1][2] It has also historically been written as "bar", which conflicts withbar.[2][3]
bar. … Some writers have used bar as equivalent tobarye (1 dyne per square centimeter). …barye. … Sometimes calledbar ormicrobar. …microbar (abbr μb). … In British literature the termbarye has been used. … Unfortunately, the bar was once used in acoustics to mean 1 dyne per square centimeter, but this is no longer correct.
T. W. Richards and A. E. Kennelly employed the term "bar" to signify a pressure of 1 dyne per square centimeter
