The Rømer scale was an early temperature scale developed by Danish astronomer Ole Rømer in 1701. While not widely used today, understanding Rømer to Celsius conversions can be valuable for historical research or scientific data analysis.
The Rømer scale is a descending scale where the freezing point of brine (a mixture of salt and water) is 0Rø, and the boiling point of water is 60°Rø.
The Celsius scale is a widely used temperature scale where 0C represents the freezing point of water and 100°C represents the boiling point of water at standard atmospheric pressure.
The formula to convert Rømer to Celsius is:
**Celsius (°C) = (Rømer (°R) - 7.5) * (40/21)**
To make the conversion process easier, we've created a simple online calculator:

Simply enter the temperature in Rømer degrees (°Rø) into the calculator, and it will instantly display the equivalent temperature in Celsius degrees (C).
Let's say you have a temperature of 20°Rø. To convert this to Celsius:
