Newton to Rankine Converter
°N
Calculation: Newton ➜ Rankine
What is the formula to convert from Newton to Rankine?
The formula to convert temperature value from the unit of Newton to the unit of Rankine is:
Temperature(Rankine) = (Temperature(Newton) × 60 / 11 + 491.67)
Newton unit in Temperature
The Newton scale, created by Sir Isaac Newton in the early 18th century, is one of the lesser-known temperature scales. It sets the freezing point of water at 0 degrees and the boiling point at 33 degrees. While the Newton scale did not achieve widespread adoption, it represents an early effort to create a standardized temperature scale based on natural reference points. Newton's work on this scale laid the groundwork for later developments in temperature measurement and contributed to the broader understanding of thermodynamics and heat transfer during the scientific revolution.
Rankine unit in Temperature
The Rankine scale, developed by Scottish engineer William John Macquorn Rankine in the mid-19th century, is an absolute temperature scale used primarily in engineering fields in the United States. Like the Kelvin scale, it begins at absolute zero, but it uses degrees Fahrenheit instead of Celsius. This makes the Rankine scale particularly useful in thermodynamic calculations involving heat and energy, especially in contexts where the Fahrenheit scale is already in use. Rankine's contributions to the field of thermodynamics have made this scale a valuable tool in disciplines such as mechanical engineering, aerospace, and energy systems.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about "Newton ➜ Rankine" Conversion
1. What is the conversion formula from Newton to Rankine?
The formula to convert Newton to Rankine in Temperature is:
(Newton * 60 / 11 + 491.67)
2. How do I convert from Newton to Rankine given a value in Newton units?
To convert Temperature from Newton to Rankine, you can use the following formula:
(Newton * 60 / 11 + 491.67)
For example, if you have a value in Newton, you substitute that value in place of Newton in the above formula, and solve the mathematical expression to get the equivalent value in Rankine.
