<onlyinclude>The '''Rankine''' (°R) is an absolute [[units|unit]] of [[temperature]], named after physicist William John Macquorn Rankine. It is related to the [[Fahrenheit]] temperature scale, just like the [[Kelvin]] scale is related to [[Celsius]].</onlyinclude> Both the Kelvin and Rankine scale have zero values at [[absolute zero]], but they are different at any values above this.

The Rankine scale is related to the Fahrenheit scale by the conversion:<ref>Gooch, Encyclopedic dictionary of polymers. New York: Springer, 2007.</ref>
<center>°R = °F + 459.67, therefore '''0°R = -459.67°F.'''</center>

In contrast, the Kelvin scale relates to the Celsius scale by the conversion:
<center>°K = °C + 273.15, therefore '''0°K = -273.15°C.'''</center>
