Celsius to Rankine Converter

Enter a Celsius temperature to calculate degrees Rankine, Kelvin, and Fahrenheit instantly, with absolute-zero validation and copyable results.

Convert Celsius to Rankine

Celsius to Rankine formula

Degrees Rankine (°R) = (degrees Celsius + 273.15) × 9 ÷ 5. Reverse: °C = °R × 5 ÷ 9 - 273.15.

Exact scale formula

Applies the defined offset and 9/5 interval ratio.

Supporting scales

Shows Kelvin and Fahrenheit for comparison.

Absolute-zero warning

Flags Celsius entries below -273.15 °C.

How to convert Celsius to Rankine

First add 273.15 to the Celsius value to move from the Celsius scale to the Kelvin absolute scale. Then multiply by 9/5 because each Rankine degree is the same size as a Fahrenheit degree, while each Kelvin interval is the same size as one Celsius degree. For example, 25 °C becomes 536.67 °R.

Rankine is an absolute thermodynamic scale used primarily in some engineering calculations that otherwise use Fahrenheit-sized intervals. Absolute zero is 0 °R, equivalent to 0 K and -273.15 °C. A physically meaningful thermodynamic temperature therefore cannot be below 0 °R.

Keep sufficient precision during intermediate calculations and round only the reported answer. Engineering work should follow the precision, uncertainty, and unit conventions of the relevant standard, instrument, or dataset.

Frequently asked questions

What is 0 Celsius in Rankine?

0 °C equals 491.67 °R.

What is the Celsius to Rankine formula?

Add 273.15 to Celsius, then multiply by 9/5.

Can Rankine be negative?

Standard thermodynamic temperature does not go below 0 °R, which is absolute zero.

Are Rankine degrees the same size as Fahrenheit degrees?

Yes. Rankine and Fahrenheit have equal interval sizes but different zero points.
