Rømer to Fahrenheit Converter

About Rømer (°Rø) and Fahrenheit (°F) Units

The Rømer scale (°Rø) is developed by the Danish astronomer Ole Rømer in 1701. In this system, water freezes at 7.5°Rø and boils at 60°Rø. Rømer created this scale while studying the freezing and boiling points of water for practical scientific measurements. It is no longer used in modern temperature measurements but remains important in historical studies. Fahrenheit (°F) is a temperature unit mainly used in the United States for weather forecasts, cooking, refrigerators, and household measurements. In this scale, water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. For example, a typical room temperature is around 68–72°F, and normal body temperature is about 98.6°F. Many people prefer Fahrenheit because it gives more precise temperature steps for daily weather and comfort levels.
