About the Temperature Converter

Temperature Converter is treated here as a quantitative relation between Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin and Fahrenheit, Celsius, Kelvin and Rankine.

The calculator uses a multi formula configuration. Each reported value is read as a direct evaluation of the stored rules with the declared field formats and units.

Formula basis:
degF → degC: C = (F - 32) x 5/9
degC → degF: F = C x 9/5 + 32
degC → K: K = C + 273.15
degC → degR: R = (C + 273.15) x 9/5

Interpret the outputs in the order shown by the result fields. Optional inputs affect only the outputs that depend on those variables.

Formula & How It Works

The calculation applies the following relations exactly as recorded in the metadata:

degF → degC: C = (F - 32) x 5/9
degC → degF: F = C x 9/5 + 32
degC → K: K = C + 273.15
degC → degR: R = (C + 273.15) x 9/5

Each output field is produced by substituting the supplied inputs into the relevant relation and then applying the declared rounding or text format.

Worked Examples

Example 1: Normal Body Temperature

Inputs

fahrenheit: 98.6
Fahrenheit: 98.6 degF. Celsius: 37 degC. Kelvin: 310.15 K. Rankine: 558.27 degR

With Fahrenheit = 98.6 as the stated inputs, the result is Fahrenheit = 98.6 degF, Celsius = 37 degC and Kelvin = 310.15 K. Each value corresponds to the declared output fields.

Example 2: Oven Temperature: 375°F

Inputs

fahrenheit: 375
Fahrenheit: 375 degF. Celsius: 190.56 degC. Kelvin: 463.71 K. Rankine: 834.67 degR

With Fahrenheit = 375 as the stated inputs, the result is Fahrenheit = 375 degF, Celsius = 190.56 degC and Kelvin = 463.71 K. Each value corresponds to the declared output fields.

Example 3: Winter Storm Warning: −20°F

Inputs

fahrenheit: -20
Fahrenheit: -20 degF. Celsius: -28.89 degC. Kelvin: 244.26 K. Rankine: 439.67 degR

With Fahrenheit = -20 as the stated inputs, the result is Fahrenheit = -20 degF, Celsius = -28.89 degC and Kelvin = 244.26 K. Each value corresponds to the declared output fields.

Example 4: Absolute Zero

Inputs

kelvin: 0
Fahrenheit: -459.67 degF. Celsius: -273.15 degC. Kelvin: 0 K. Rankine: 0 degR

With Kelvin = 0 as the stated inputs, the result is Fahrenheit = -459.67 degF, Celsius = -273.15 degC and Kelvin = 0 K. Each value corresponds to the declared output fields.
