About Temperature Conversion
Temperature conversion is the process of changing a temperature from one scale to another. The most common temperature scales are Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (°F), Kelvin (K), Rankine (°R), and Réaumur (°Ré).
Common temperature points:
• Water freezes: 0°C = 32°F = 273.15K = 491.67°R = 0°Ré
• Water boils: 100°C = 212°F = 373.15K = 671.67°R = 80°Ré
• Room temperature: ~20-25°C = ~68-77°F
• Body temperature: ~37°C = ~98.6°F
Formulas for Converting Temperature
Use these temperature conversion formulas to convert from one temperature scale to another.
Celsius Conversion Formula
Celsius to Fahrenheit | °F = °C × 9/5 + 32 |
Celsius to Kelvin | K = °C + 273.15 |
Celsius to Rankine | °R = °C × 9/5 + 491.67 |
Celsius to Réaumur | °Ré = °C × 4/5 |
Fahrenheit Conversion Formula
Fahrenheit to Celsius | °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9 |
Fahrenheit to Kelvin | K = (°F + 459.67) × 5/9 |
Fahrenheit to Rankine | °R = °F + 459.67 |
Fahrenheit to Réaumur | °Ré = (°F - 32) × 4/9 |
Kelvin Conversion Formula
Kelvin to Celsius | °C = K − 273.15 |
Kelvin to Fahrenheit | °F = K × 9/5 − 459.67 |
Kelvin to Rankine | °R = K × 9/5 |
Kelvin to Réaumur | °Ré = (K - 273.15) × 4/5 |
Rankine Conversion Formula
Rankine to Celsius | °C = (°R - 491.67) × 5/9 |
Rankine to Fahrenheit | °F = °R − 459.67 |
Rankine to Kelvin | K = °R × 5/9 |
Rankine to Réaumur | °Ré = (°R - 491.67) × 4/9 |
Réaumur Scale Conversion Formula
Réaumur to Celsius | °C = °Ré × 5/4 |
Réaumur to Fahrenheit | °F = °Ré × 9/4 + 32 |
Réaumur to Kelvin | K = °Ré × 5/4 + 273.15 |
Réaumur to Rankine | °R = °Ré × 9/4 + 491.67 |
