About these units
Celsius (°C)
- Definition
- The degree Celsius (°C) is a metric temperature unit where water freezes at 0° and boils at 100° at standard pressure.
- History
- Proposed by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius in 1742 (originally inverted), the scale was later flipped to its modern form.
- Current use
- Celsius is the everyday temperature scale across most of the world for weather, cooking, and medicine.
Rankine (°R)
- Definition
- The degree Rankine (°R) is an absolute temperature scale that uses Fahrenheit-sized degrees starting at absolute zero.
- History
- Proposed by Scottish engineer William Rankine in 1859 as the absolute counterpart to Fahrenheit.
- Current use
- Rankine appears in some US engineering and thermodynamics work, particularly in aerospace.
