There are currently two units of temperature<\/u> in the International System:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kelvin, symbol K<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Degree on the thermodynamic scale of absolute temperatures where the triple point of water is 273.16 K<\/p>\n\n\n\n Degree Celsius, symbol \u00b0C<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Celsius temperature t corresponding to the thermodynamic temperature T is defined by the equation t = T – T0 where T0 = 273.15 K<\/p>\n\n\n\n A temperature interval or difference can also be expressed in degrees Celsius. In the past, a number of temperature measurement scales have been defined based on two or more fixed points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It should be noted that the kelvin is not used with the word degree or the symbol; we say \u201ca kelvin\u201d and not a degree kelvin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-3223","faq","type-faq","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"\n
