How to convert degrees celsius to degrees rankine?

Sure, let’s dive into the conversion between degrees Celsius (°C) and degrees Rankine (°R):

Conversion Formula: The relationship between Celsius and Rankine scales can be expressed using the following formula: $\text{°R} = (\text{°C} + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5}$

To convert 1 degree Celsius to degrees Rankine: $\text{°R} = (1 + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5}$ $\text{°R} = 274.15 \times 1.8$ $\text{°R} = 493.47$

So, 1 degree Celsius is equivalent to 493.47 degrees Rankine.

Real World Examples of Degrees Celsius:

Room Temperature:
- 20°C: This is a common room temperature considered to be comfortable for indoor settings. In Rankine, it would be: $\text{°R} = (20 + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} = 527.67\text{°R}$
Freezing Point of Water:
- 0°C: This is another well-known temperature, marking the freezing point of water. In Rankine, it’s: $\text{°R} = (0 + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} = 491.67\text{°R}$
Boiling Point of Water:
- 100°C: This marks the boiling point of water at standard atmospheric pressure. In Rankine, it translates to: $\text{°R} = (100 + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} = 671.67\text{°R}$
Human Body Temperature:
- 37°C: This is the average normal body temperature of a human. In Rankine, it is: $\text{°R} = (37 + 273.15) \times \frac{9}{5} = 558.27\text{°R}$

These conversions provide a practical sense of how temperatures we frequently encounter in Celsius translate to the Rankine scale. The Rankine scale is often used in engineering fields, particularly in thermodynamics, where absolute temperature readings are critical.

What is degree Celsius?

Degree Celsius is the unit of measurement for template used by SI units. It's symbol is $^\circ C$ .

To convert some x amount of Celsius

^\circ C = (x *\ \frac{9}{5} + \ 32)\ ^\circ F

where x is number of degree Celsius

^\circ C = x +\ 273.15\ ^\circ K

where x is number of degree Celsius

What is degrees rankine?

Degrees Rankine (°R or °Ra) is a temperature scale that was proposed by William John Macquorn Rankine in 1859. It's primarily used in thermodynamics and engineering to measure temperatures.

On the Rankine scale, water freezes at 491.67 °R (0 °C is equivalent to 491.67 °R), and water boils at 671.69 °R (100 °C).

The Rankine scale has its own reference points for absolute zero, which is defined as 0 °R.

Here's a rough conversion from Celsius to Rankine:

°C × (9/5) = °R

To give you an idea of how this scale works, here are some common temperatures in both Celsius and Rankine:

Freezing point of water: 0 °C = 491.67 °R
Room temperature (20 °C): 68 °F ≈ 594.47 °R
Human body temperature (37 °C): 98.6 °F ≈ 610.71 °R

While the Rankine scale is not commonly used in everyday applications, it's still employed in various fields like thermodynamics and power engineering.

Keep in mind that most everyday temperature scales, such as Fahrenheit or Celsius, are more practical for general use, whereas the Rankine scale is often used in specific contexts where absolute temperatures are required.
