Celsius
Celsius (symbol: °C) is a unit of temperature in the metric system. It is based on the temperature scale where 0°C represents the freezing point of water and 100°C represents the boiling point of water at sea level.
The Celsius scale was developed by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius in 1742. Initially, he defined the scale in reverse, with 0°C as the boiling point and 100°C as the freezing point. Later, this was inverted to the current standard.
Celsius is widely used around the world, particularly in scientific contexts and in countries that follow the metric system. It is commonly used for weather reports, medical thermometers, and various scientific measurements.
Rankine (symbol: °R) is a unit of temperature in the Imperial system. The Rankine scale is an absolute temperature scale, starting from absolute zero, similar to the Kelvin scale but using Fahrenheit degrees.
The Rankine scale was developed by Scottish engineer and physicist William John Macquorn Rankine in 1859. It was designed to provide an absolute reference point for temperature measurements, where absolute zero is 0°R.
Rankine is primarily used in engineering fields, particularly in thermodynamics and aerospace engineering. It is also used in some scientific contexts where temperature measurements need to be expressed in Fahrenheit-based absolute values.
To convert from Celsius to Rankine, you can use the following formula:
Celsius to Rankine: ( \text{°R} = (\text{°C} + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} )
Convert Celsius to Rankine:
Use the formula: ( \text{°R} = (\text{°C} + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} )
Calculation: ( (25 + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} = 536.67 )°R
Example 1: If the temperature is 15°C, convert it to Rankine using the formula (15 + 273.15) (\times) (\frac{9}{5}) = 518.67°R.
Example 2: For a temperature of 35°C, convert to Rankine using the formula (35 + 273.15) (\times) (\frac{9}{5}) = 554.67°R.
To convert Celsius to Rankine, use the formula R = (C + 273.15) × 9/5. For example, 25°C converts to 536.67 R.
