Rankine to Newton Converter

Rankine to Newton: A Comprehensive Guide

Dive deeper into the world of temperature scales with our in-depth guide to converting between Rankine and Newton.

Both Rankine and Newton are absolute temperature scales, meaning they start at absolute zero – the point of zero molecular motion.

Rankine (°R): Based on the Fahrenheit scale, 0°R equals absolute zero. Each degree Rankine is equivalent to one degree Fahrenheit.
Newton (°N): Developed by Sir Isaac Newton, this scale is descending, with 0°N representing the freezing point of water.

To seamlessly transition between these scales, utilize the following formula:

Newton (°N) = (Rankine (°R) - 491.67) * (33/180)

This equation accurately accounts for the unique characteristics and starting points of both the Rankine and Newton scales.
