Complete Conversion Formulas

Celsius (°C)
- To Fahrenheit: (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F
- To Kelvin: °C + 273.15 = K
- To Rankine: (°C + 273.15) × 9/5 = °R

Fahrenheit (°F)
- To Celsius: (°F − 32) × 5/9 = °C
- To Kelvin: (°F − 32) × 5/9 + 273.15 = K
- To Rankine: °F + 459.67 = °R

Kelvin (K)
- To Celsius: K − 273.15 = °C
- To Fahrenheit: (K − 273.15) × 9/5 + 32 = °F
- To Rankine: K × 9/5 = °R

Rankine (°R)
- To Celsius: (°R − 491.67) × 5/9 = °C
- To Fahrenheit: °R − 459.67 = °F
- To Kelvin: °R × 5/9 = K

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rankine and why would I need it?
Rankine is an absolute temperature scale used primarily in thermodynamics and certain engineering fields (especially in the US). Like Kelvin, it starts at absolute zero, but uses the Fahrenheit increment. It's useful for calculations involving gas laws and heat engines.
Is this temperature converter accurate for scientific work?
Yes. The tool uses standard scientific formulas with 4 decimal places of precision, which is sufficient for most lab work, engineering, and educational purposes.
Do I need an internet connection?
Once loaded, the temperature converter works entirely offline. All calculations are performed locally in your browser using JavaScript.
What are the freezing and boiling points of water in Rankine?
Water freezes at 491.67°R and boils at 671.67°R (at standard atmospheric pressure).
