Comparing Kelvin & Rankine

What is Kelvin?

K

Kelvin is the base unit of temperature in the International System of Units (SI). It starts at absolute zero, the point where all thermal motion theoretically stops, and uses the same increment size as Celsius.

Pro Fact: Absolute zero is defined as 0 Kelvin, which equals −273.15 degrees Celsius.

What is Rankine?

°Ra

Rankine is an absolute temperature scale based on Fahrenheit units, where zero represents absolute zero. It is mainly used in thermodynamics and engineering applications in the United States.

Did you know? Rankine uses the same degree size as Fahrenheit but starts from absolute zero instead of 32 degrees.
