Converting from Réaumur (°Ré) to Rankine (°R) | Temperature

What is Réaumur (°Ré)

Réaumur (°Ré) is a temperature scale where the freezing point of water is defined as 0°Ré and the boiling point as 80°Ré. This scale was proposed by René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur in 1731.

What is Rankine (°R)

Rankine (°R) is another temperature scale commonly used in engineering applications, especially in the United States. Here, absolute zero is defined as 0°R, which is equivalent to -459.67°F.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between Réaumur and Rankine are as follows:

°Ré to °R: T(°R)=T(°Ré)×493.92

°R to °Ré: T(°Ré)=493.92T(°R)​

Examples

1. Converting 6°Ré to Rankine:

6°Ré=6×493.92=505.17°R

2. Converting 15°R to Réaumur:

15°R=493.9215​=−211.8533°Ré

3. Converting 16°Ré to Rankine:

16°Ré=16×493.92=527.67°R
