Rankine (°R)
System: Imperial
Definition:The Rankine scale is based on the Fahrenheit scale, with its zero point at absolute zero. 0 °Ra = 0 K. Water freezes at 491.67 °Ra and boils at 671.67 °Ra.
Origin: Named after the Scottish engineer and physicist William John Macquorn Rankine.
Common Usage: Used in some engineering fields in the United States.
Synonyms: °Ra
Kelvin (K)
System: SI
Definition:Defined based on the Boltzmann constant. The zero point (0 K) is absolute zero, the theoretical minimum temperature. Water freezes at 273.15 K and boils at 373.15 K.
Origin: Named after the Irish physicist William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin.
Common Usage: Used primarily in science and engineering.
