No single conversion factor can be used to convert temperatures in the English system (degrees Fahrenheit or
degrees Rankine) to temperatures in the SI system (degrees Celsius and degrees Kelvin) or the other way around.
The equations for converting temperatures and temperature difference from one system to another are presented
in Table 3.
F = degrees Fahrenheit; C = degrees Celcius; R = degrees Rankine; K = degrees Kelvin; t = temperature difference
