What are TriplePointOfWater and Celsius

Definition of TriplePointOfWater

The triple point of water refers to the unique combination of temperature and pressure where water can exist simultaneously in its solid, liquid, and vapor phases. It is a fundamental fixed point in thermodynamics and is precisely defined at 273.16 Kelvin, which is equivalent to 0.01 degrees Celsius.

Definition of Celsius

The Celsius scale, also known as centigrade, is a temperature scale where 0 degrees represents the freezing point of water, and 100 degrees marks the boiling point at standard atmospheric pressure. It is named after Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer who first proposed the scale in 1742.
