1 kPa = 1000 N/m2 , where a N is for "Newton" and it is a force unit ( not a mass unit, as Kg ), where 1 Kg exerces 9,81 Newtons under earth gravity ( 1 Kg * gravitational acceleration (9,81m/s2) )
so, simply, 1 kPa is the force exerced by 1,02 Kg on a square cm, on earth.
and roughly, 100kPa = 14,5 psi
