Conversion of temperature

The conversion of temperatures is carried out slightly differently. Because the Fahrenheit degree (°F) is smaller than a Celsius degree by a factor of 9 (because there are 180 Fahrenheit degrees between the freezing point and boiling point of water but only 100 Celsius degrees between the same two points) and because 0°C coincides with 32°F, we use...

The conversion of temperature to an energy scale is accomplished by making an Arrhenius plot for a series of experimental DLTS rate windows (see Fig. 48 in Section 15). This will give not only the energy depth but also the prefactor, v or Vp, for each level. 

Thermoelectric gas sensors are other field of possible application of metal oxides. The thermoelectric effect is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage. A thermoelectric device... 

At many other places in the text, linear relationships occur that were not shown in graphical terms. For example, the conversion of temperature scales in Chapter 1 can also be expressed in the form of a straight line ... 

As can be seen, it is essential in precise work to declare which temperature scale has been employed. Rossini discusses IPTS-68 and considers the problem of conversion of temperature and calorimetric data obtained under the previous scale. 

Conversion of Temperatures from the 1948 and 1968 Scales to ITS-90 International System of Units (SI)... 

Table 2.1, located at the end of this chapter, is a conversion table to allow the rapid conversion of temperature between Fahrenheit and Celsius values. The table includes instructions for its use.
