Calculation Info

The Newton to Rankine (°N to °R) Converter is a simple tool designed to help you easily convert temperatures from Newton degrees to Rankine degrees. It is useful for students, engineers, and anyone working with different temperature scales.

The Newton temperature scale (°N) was created by Isaac Newton and is based on the freezing point of water being 0°N and the boiling point at 33°N. The Rankine scale (°R) is an absolute temperature scale used mainly in engineering, especially in the United States, and it starts at absolute zero, similar to Kelvin, but uses Fahrenheit degrees.

To convert from Newton to Rankine, you need to understand their relationship. The formula for converting Newton degrees to Rankine degrees is:
°R = (°N × 60/11) + 491.67

Here, you multiply the Newton temperature by 60/11 to convert it into Fahrenheit degrees, then add 491.67 to shift from Fahrenheit to Rankine. This formula ensures accurate conversion between the two scales for any temperature value you input.

Using this converter, you can quickly switch between Newton and Rankine temperature units, making it easier to interpret and work with temperature data across different measurement systems.
