Fahrenheit To Rankine Conversion Calculator
Enter A Temperature
Use this calculator to quickly convert a temperature from Fahrenheit (°F) to degrees Rankine (°R).
Enter a temperature for an instant °F to °R conversion - there is no need to press submit!
This calculator accepts values using both scales and so, if required, can be used to convert temperatures in Rankine back to Fahrenheit.
If interested, this site has a Rankine to Fahrenheit section, which also features a temperature conversion calculator, formula and tables.
Fahrenheit To Rankine Formula
The calculator above uses the following formula to convert Fahrenheit to Rankine:
The worked example below shows how to convert to Rankine from Fahrenheit using this formula.
If are using this formula to manually convert a temperature, check your result with the calculator.
How To Convert Fahrenheit To Rankine (°F to °R)
This worked example shows how to convert a temperature in Fahrenheit to Rankine using the formula: Rankine (°R) = Fahrenheit + 459.67
Worked Example
Convert 50 Fahrenheit (°F) to Rankine (°R)
| °R = | 50 + 459.67 |
| = | 509.67 °R |
| ∴ | therefore, 50 Fahrenheit (°F) is equal to 509.67 Rankine (°R) |

Albert Einstein is shown for illustrative purposes.
William John Macquorn Rankine (1820-1872), is the proponent of the Rankine temperature scale.
