Convert kelvin to degree rankine
Kelvin
The kelvin (K) is the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature and temperature interval. A temperature interval of one kelvin is equal to one degree Celsius. The kelvin scale is used in scientific contexts and is the basis for all thermodynamic calculations involving absolute temperature differences.
Degree Rankine
The degree Rankine (°R) is the imperial absolute temperature scale unit. A Rankine interval equals a Fahrenheit interval, and 1°R = 5/9 K. It is used in aerospace and thermodynamic engineering in the United States where absolute temperature calculations are required but imperial units are preferred.
