About this conversion
This page converts Romer (°Ro) into Celsius (°C), two scales used to measure temperature.
Romer to Celsius conversions come up in science, engineering, weather reporting, and historical references, depending on which scale is in use.
The formula is °C = (°Ro × 40/21) − 100/7, a linear equation that accounts for both the scale factor and the zero-point offset between the two scales.
The conversion is exact: it uses fixed constants defined by the relationship between the two scales, not a measured or approximate factor.
Romer is a historical temperature scale where water freezes at 7.5° and boils at 60°. Celsius is a temperature scale based on the freezing and boiling points of water.
