The relationship between
Kelvin and Celsius is simplest, so let's begin there. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Eqn 1 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore : |
|
|
|
|
|
T(K) |
407.15 |
K |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The relationship between
Celsius and Fahrenheit is also fairly simple, so let's work on that next. |
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
Eqn 2 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore : |
|
|
|
|
|
T(oF) |
273.20 |
oF |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are two
straightforward ways to determine T(oR) at this point. |
|
|
We can either convert T(K) to T(oR) or we can convert T(oF) to T(oR). |
|
|
Let's try both
methods, just to be thorough. |
