Kelvin / Celsius Units Definition
Kelvin
The kelvin is an absolute temperature measurement that was introduced thanks to the third principle of thermodynamics. The temperature of 0 K is equal to -273.15°C and corresponds to absolute zero.
Celsius
The degree Celsius is a unit of temperature measurement. 0°C corresponds to the temperature at which water turns to ice under a pressure of one atmosphere. The degree Celsius is equal to the Kelvin (K), the Celsius scale being 273.15° off the Kelvin scale, which starts at absolute zero (-273.15°C).
