Vacuum conversion
Absolute pressure p (mbar abs.) can be converted to and from pressure difference p (inches Hg) based on atomspheric pressure of 2013 mbar abs.
(= 760 Torr = 29.92 inches Hg abs.) using the following formulas:
29.92 - 2.953 x 10-2 x p (mbar abs.) = p (inches Hg)
1013 - 33.86 x p (inches Hg) = p (mbar abs.)
