  2. Conversion of scales of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_scales_of...

    To convert a delta temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, the formula is {ΔT} °F = ⁠ 9 / 5 ⁠ {ΔT} °C. To convert a delta temperature from degrees Celsius to kelvin, it is 1:1 ({ΔT} °C = {ΔT} K).

    In 1967/1968, Resolution 3 of the 13th CGPM renamed the unit increment of thermodynamic temperature "kelvin", symbol K, replacing "degree Kelvin", symbol °K. [ 39 ] [ 40 ] [ 41 ] The 13th CGPM also held in Resolution 4 that "The kelvin, unit of thermodynamic temperature, is equal to the fraction ⁠ 1 / 273.16 ⁠ of the thermodynamic ...

    Celsius temperature: t, φ: degree Celsius °C: The degree Celsius is a special name for the unit kelvin, for use in stating values of Celsius temperature. t = T − T 0, where T 0 = 273.15 K linear expansion coefficient: α l: reciprocal kelvin, kelvin to the power negative 1: K −1 =...

  6. Scale of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_of_temperature

    The degree Celsius (°C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as a unit to indicate a temperature interval (a difference between two temperatures). From 1744 until 1954, 0 °C was defined as the freezing point of water and 100 °C was defined as the boiling point of water, both at a pressure of one standard atmosphere.

    Joseph-Nicolas Delisle. The Delisle scale is a temperature scale invented in 1732 by the French astronomer Joseph-Nicolas Delisle (1688–1768). [1] The Delisle scale is notable as one of the few temperature scales that are inverted from the amount of thermal energy they measure; unlike most other temperature scales, higher measurements in degrees Delisle are colder, while lower measurements ...

  9. International Temperature Scale of 1990 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Temperature...

    Temperatures measured with equipment calibrated per ITS-90 may be expressed using any temperature scale such as Celsius, Kelvin, Fahrenheit, or Rankine. For example, a temperature can be measured using equipment calibrated to the kelvin-based ITS-90 standard, and that value may then be converted to, and expressed as, a value on the Fahrenheit ...
