kelvin to Delisle
Please provide values below to convert kelvin [K] to Delisle [°D], or change ↔.
kelvin [K]
Definition: The kelvin is the base unit of temperature in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined by setting the fixed numerical value of the Boltzmann constant k to 1.380649×10^-23 J/K.
Historyandorigin: The kelvin was named after the British physicist William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin. It was originally defined based on the triple point of water and absolute zero.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific contexts, especially in thermodynamics and astronomy.
funfact: Absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature, is 0 K.
Delisle [°D]
Definition: The Delisle scale (°D) is a temperature scale where 0°D corresponds to the boiling point of water and 150°D corresponds to the freezing point of water.
Historyandorigin: Created by French astronomer Joseph-Nicolas Delisle in 1732, the scale was used in Russia for some time before being replaced by the Celsius scale.
funfact: Unlike most temperature scales, Delisle is an inverse scale—higher temperatures correspond to lower values.
CurrentUse: The Delisle scale is mostly of historical interest and is rarely used today.

How to Convert kelvin to Delisle
1 kelvin [K] = 559.725 Delisle [°D]
1 Delisle [°D] = -1.9946402251 kelvin [K]
we use cross multiplication method
kelvin [K] → Delisle [°D]
1 → 559.725
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*559.725=1*x
by simplifying
x=653.0125
