Water - Boiling Points at Vacuum Pressure
Online calculator, figures and tables giving the boiling temperatures of water in varying vacuum, SI and Imperial units.
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid, and the liquid changes into a vapor. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding pressure.
A liquid in a partial vacuum has a lower boiling point than when that liquid is at atmospheric pressure.
Online Water Boiling Point Calculator
The calculator below can be used to calculate the water boiling point at given, absolute pressures.
The output temperature is given as °C, °F, K and °R.
Note! Pressure must be within the ranges 0-1000 mbara, 0-14.7 psia, 0-760 mm Hg or 0-30 in Hg.
Below, figures and tables show the boiling point of water at varying vacuum.
See Water and Heavy Water for thermodynamic properties at standard condtions.

Boiling point as function of the pressure, given as "mm Hg below standard atmospheric pressure":
(= Vacuum of e.g. 100 mm Hg is the same as [760-100]=660 mm Hg absolute pressure)
The table shows the water boiling temperature at different vacuum pressure.
Vacuum is given as absolute pressure and pressure "below standard atmospheric pressure" (1 bara = 0 vacuum):
