°Rø = °C * 21 / 40 + 7.5
°C = ( °Rø - 7.5 ) * 40 / 21
Scale information
Rømer
The Rømer scale is a temperature scale named after the Danish astronomer Ole Christensen Rømer (1644-1710), who proposed it in 1701. The freezing point of water is set at 7.5°Rø and the boiling point at 60°Rø.Celsius
The Celsius scale (also known as centigrade) is a temperature scale named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701-1744), who developed a similar scale. From 1744 until 1954 0°C was defined as the freezing point of water and 100°C as the boiling point (at standard atmospheric pressure).
