scipy.constants.F2K

scipy.constants.F2K(F)

Convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin

Parameters :

F : float-like scalar or array-like

Fahrenheit temperature(s) to be converted

Returns :

K : float or a numpy array of floats, corresponding to type of Parameters

Equivalent Kelvin temperature(s)

Notes

Computes K = (F - 32)/1.8 + zero_Celsius where zero_Celsius = 273.15, i.e., (the absolute value of) temperature “absolute zero” as measured in Celsius.

Examples

>>> from scipy.constants.constants import F2K
>>> F2K(np.array([-40, 104]))
array([ 233.15,  313.15])
