Converting units of temperature differences (also referred to as temperature deltas) is not the same as converting absolute temperature values, and different formulae must be used. To convert a delta temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, the formula is {ΔT} °F = 9 / 5 {ΔT} °C.

Engineering notation can only be applied to simple units—temperatures, combinations, and some other special units will not work. Some examples using engineering notation follow. {{convert|123.4|e3m2}} → 123.4 thousand square metres (1.328 × 10 ^ 6 sq ft)
The table below lists units supported by {{convert}}. More complete lists are linked for each dimension. For a complete list of all dimensions, see full list of units. {{Convert}} uses unit-codes, which are similar to, but not necessarily exactly the same as, the usual written abbreviation for a given unit. These unit-codes are displayed in ...
As the target temperature of the refrigerator approaches ambient temperature, without exceeding it, the refrigeration capacity increases thus increasing the refrigerator's COP. The SI unit is watt (W). Another unit common in non-metric regions or sectors is the ton of refrigeration, which describes the amount of water at freezing 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.
134 K, highest-temperature superconductor at ambient pressure, mercury barium calcium copper oxide; 165 K, glass point of supercooled water; 184.0 K (–89.2 °C), coldest air recorded on Earth; 192 K, Debye temperature of ice; 273.15 K (0 °C), melting point of bound water; 273.16 K (0.01 °C), temperature of triple point of water; c. 293 K ...
to say this: the unit of the T (Temperature) is °C (degrees Celsius) (well it should better say Kelvin, but °C shows it better here). It would be great, if someone could add a good explanation to ISO 31-0 (I just added a short sentence there). Greetings -- 217.84.150.117 01:14, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
