I sometimes have troubles in atmos because the heat pumps are in some K whatever measure and now C. and the difference is huge. This includes Thermo Machines
both Celsius and Kelvin are the correct ways to measure those though, it would be very odd to measure something ‘scientific’ in imperial
Interestin’ filter for the server.
cough cough
NASA
Isn’t Celsius and Kelvin basically the same but with the goal post of “what is 0 degrees” shifted so that Kelvin doesn’t have negative readings?
but yeah Metric FUCKING ROCKS.
Fun facts about Metric;
This is fucking neat, check it out.
Imperial is what happens when you let inbred royalty define the way your world is measured.
Also look at this
Fahrenheit were invented in Norway, 0ºF is the temperature at which sea water freeze. I have no idea how it was extended in USA
I’m not gonna lie to you man Canada in that picture should be striped.
I use a Fahrenheit measurement every time I cook on my family’s 60+ year old stove.
I’ve been forced to learn and use the imperial system decimally in college, which given I love metric SUCKS but oh well at least I can fuck with people by converting Inches to centimeters.
Yes Fahrenheit require an equation to convert it to kelvin
Are you sure the stove isn’t made in USA?
I’m too homely, chill and relaxed for that cross multiplying fractional bull shit RN.
Git that shit outta here.
NGL I’m pretty sure our old magic chef is American made, but we have both Celsius and Fahrenheit cooking instructions on all our food so it’s ok.
Kelvin was based on absolute zero. Where the particales are frozen in place, which is REALLY difficult. While Celsius is based on the boiling point of water and when water turns to ice.
Genius ploy by Norway!
Get out. Get out right now!! What the fuck?!
You’re against the diversity of measurements.
hmm, no wonder there is consistency between the two.
Water at 0 degrees C at 1 BAR leads to freezing…
water at 273.2 degrees Kelvin at 1 BAR also leads to freezing…
-273.2 degrees C would also lead to particles frozen in place presumably.
who knew basing measurements upon natural and physical phenomena made things deliciously consistent
@EvilDragon how many teaspoons in a Gallon! NO GOOGLE! NO INTERNETZ SOLVE!
I got 768 tea spoons.
273.15, just add that to every kelvin value to get celsius
Imagine posting evangelion intro looking charts and pretending they’re real.
Also I love SI units.
These are extremely useful since they’re what’s used for basically any scientific work that’s reputable, and it’s complete. What does that mean? It means you can get every other type of measurement from the 7 base units + constants:
