Kelvin

A kelvin interval is the same size as a Celsius degree interval.

History: Kelvin intervals come from the thermodynamic temperature scale.

Current use: Kelvin intervals are used in science, engineering, thermodynamics, and heat-transfer calculations.

Also written as K.

Degree Rankine

A Rankine degree interval equals 5/9 kelvin.

History: Rankine uses Fahrenheit-sized degrees on an absolute thermodynamic scale.

Current use: Rankine intervals appear in thermodynamics and some US engineering calculations.

Also written as deg R.
