About converting Celsius to Rankine

Converting Celsius to Rankine is a common temperature conversion. One celsius (°C) equals 493.5 rankine (°R). Celsius is used in most countries worldwide and in all scientific applications.

This conversion is commonly needed for weather and travel planning, cooking and baking, scientific experiments. Rankine is an absolute temperature scale using Fahrenheit degree intervals, used in some US engineering applications.

To put celsius in perspective: water freezes (0 °C). In rankine, common references include absolute zero (0 °R).

Did you know?

The Celsius scale was invented by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius in 1742, but he originally set 0° as boiling and 100° as freezing — it was later reversed.
