Temperature Converter

This temperature converter features 8 different temperature units. This makes it possible to convert freely between Kelvin [K], degrees Celsius [°C], degrees Fahrenheit [°F], degrees Rankine [°Ra], degrees Delisle [°De], degrees Réaumur [°Ré], degrees Newton [°N] and degrees Rømer [°Rø] at will. All temperature units are converted in real time and displayed with up to 20 decimal places, ensuring sufficient accuracy.

Two Steps to Your Result

Our temperature converter offers several input fields, each displaying the current unit symbol (for example, °F, K or °C). To change a unit, simply click on the unit symbol and select your preferred measurement from the dropdown menu.

Once you have selected the desired units in the temperature converter, simply enter the value you want to convert. You can input numbers into any of the available fields. As soon as you enter a value in one field, all other fields will automatically update and display the converted results. Both the entered value and the calculated results are automatically rounded to the predefined number of decimal places.

At the bottom of the temperature converter, you will find two green buttons. The button on the right resets the converter to its default state. This restores all units, values, and decimal settings to their original configuration. The button on the left clears the current inputs by setting all values to zero, while keeping your selected units and decimal settings unchanged.

Conversion table for temperature units

Temperatures are always given with a value and the corresponding unit. A conversion table can be used to determine the value of the known temperature in another unit. For example: How many kelvins [K] are in 1 degree Celsius [°C]?. In most cases, however, such a table is used to determine the appropriate calculation method for converting one temperature unit into another. Due to their complexity, conversion tables can be somewhat confusing, making them difficult for beginners to understand.

The following tool provides a solution to this problem, allowing the calculation method for the conversion to be queried directly from the conversion table. The conversion table comprises a total of 8 temperature units.

Converting temperatures in everyday life

There are temperature units that are almost never used in everyday life. These include, for example, degrees Réaumur [°Ré], degrees Newton [°N] and degrees Rømer [°Rø]. For this reason, it is not necessary to know all the calculation methods for conversion by heart. However, there are temperature units that are used very frequently in everyday life. Examples include kelvin [K], degrees Celsius [°C] and degrees Fahrenheit [°F]. For these temperature units, it can be very helpful to know the calculation method by heart.

Convert degrees Celsius and kelvin

Converting between degrees Celsius [°C] and kelvin [K] is relatively simple. To convert degrees Celsius [°C] to kelvin [K], you must add 273.15 to the degree value. This is because the zero point on the kelvin scale is -273.15°C. This point is also known as absolute zero, as -273.15°C is the lowest possible temperature that can be reached but not fallen below. To convert kelvin [K] to degrees Celsius [°C] you have to subtract 273.15 from the Kelvin number.

• Degrees Celsius [°C] = kelvin [K] – 273.15
• Kelvin [K] = degrees Celsius [°C] + 273.15

Convert degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit

When converting degrees Celsius [°C] to degrees Fahrenheit [°F] first multiply the number of degrees by 1.8 and then add 32. The conversion from degrees Fahrenheit [°F] to degrees Celsius [°C] is done in reverse. First, subtract 32 from the degrees Fahrenheit [°F] and divide the result by 1.8. Converting between these two temperature units is important because degrees Fahrenheit [°F] are commonly used in the US and some other countries, while degrees Celsius [°C] are used internationally.

• Degrees Celsius [°C] = (degrees Fahrenheit [°F] – 32) ÷ 1.8
• Degrees Fahrenheit [°F] = (degrees Celsius [°C] * 1.8) + 32
