Length per Length per Degree Celsius
°C⁻¹
Definition
The length per length per degree Celsius (°C⁻¹) is a unit of thermal expansion coefficient equal to one kelvin. It represents the fractional change in length per unit temperature change in the Celsius scale, providing a practical measure for thermal expansion in everyday temperature measurements.
History/Origin
Developed as a practical unit for thermal expansion measurements using the Celsius temperature scale, this unit became widely adopted in engineering and scientific applications. It provides the same numerical value as the kelvin-based unit, making it convenient for temperature calculations in Celsius.
Current Use
Commonly used in engineering applications, materials testing, and construction where temperature measurements are made in Celsius. It is essential for designing thermal management systems, calculating expansion allowances, and predicting material behavior under temperature changes.

Length per Length per Degree Rankine
°R⁻¹
Definition
The length per length per degree Rankine (°R⁻¹) is a unit of thermal expansion coefficient equal to 1.8 per kelvin. It represents the fractional change in length per unit temperature change in the Rankine scale, providing an absolute temperature-based measure for thermal expansion calculations.
History/Origin
Developed as part of the Rankine absolute temperature scale system, this unit provides thermal expansion measurements in absolute temperature units. It maintains the same relationship as the Fahrenheit unit but is used in contexts requiring absolute temperature measurements.
Current Use
Used in specialized engineering applications, particularly in thermodynamics and heat transfer calculations where absolute temperature measurements are required. It is commonly found in power generation, refrigeration, and aerospace engineering applications.
