Discover the ease of converting Reaumur (°Re) to the Triple Point of Water (TPW) with our user-friendly tool, designed by Newtum for seamless temperature conversions.
The Reaumur scale (°Re), named after René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur, is a temperature scale where the freezing and boiling points of water are defined as 0°Re and 80°Re respectively. It was widely used in Europe, particularly in France, Germany, and Russia, before being replaced by the Celsius scale.
Definition of TriplePointOfWaterThe Triple Point of Water (TPW) is a thermodynamic term referring to the unique combination of temperature and pressure at which water can coexist in three phases: solid, liquid, and gas. This point occurs at precisely 0.01°C and 611.657 pascals, providing a fixed point for calibrations in precise temperature measurements.
Reaumur (°Re) | Triple Point of Water (TPW) |
---|---|
0°Re | 0.00 TPW |
1°Re | 0.01 TPW |
2°Re | 0.02 TPW |
3°Re | 0.03 TPW |
4°Re | 0.04 TPW |
5°Re | 0.05 TPW |
6°Re | 0.06 TPW |
7°Re | 0.07 TPW |
8°Re | 0.08 TPW |
9°Re | 0.09 TPW |
10°Re | 0.10 TPW |
Example 1:
Convert 5°Re to TPW:
5°Re = 5 × (TPW factor) TPW
Example 2:
Convert 3.5°Re to TPW:
3.5°Re = 3.5 × (TPW factor) TPW
The Reaumur to Triple Point of Water Converter is an innovative tool that stems from the need to accurately map temperatures between the Reaumur scale and the precise TPW fixed point, crucial for scientific temperature standards and calibrations.
Explore the practical applications of our Reaumur to Triple Point of Water Converter, a vital tool for scientists and professionals.
Example 1:
To convert 2°Re to TPW:
2°Re = 2 × (TPW factor) TPW
Example 2:
To convert 7°Re to TPW:
7°Re = 7 × (TPW factor) TPW
The Reaumur scale is a temperature scale where water freezes at 0°Re and boils at 80°Re.
The TPW is a standard fixed point used for calibrating temperature measurement devices.
Simply input the °Re value and the converter will output the corresponding TPW measurement.
