About converting Fahrenheit to Rankine

Converting Fahrenheit to Rankine is a common temperature conversion. One fahrenheit (°F) equals 460.7 rankine (°R). Fahrenheit is used for everyday temperatures in the United States and a few Caribbean nations.

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 fahrenheit in perspective: water freezes (32 °F). In rankine, common references include absolute zero (0 °R).

Did you know?

Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit chose 96° as normal body temperature (later corrected to 98.6°F) and 0° as the temperature of a specific brine solution.
