Description

Delisle (°De): A Historical Temperature Scale

The Delisle scale, denoted as °De, was developed by French astronomer Joseph-Nicolas Delisle in the 18th century. This scale is unique in that it measures temperature in reverse; higher temperatures correspond to lower degree values. Although it has fallen out of common use, the Delisle scale remains a point of interest in the history of thermometry and the development of temperature measurement systems.

Rømer (°Rø): The Danish Astronomer's Temperature Scale

The Rømer scale, denoted as °Rø, was developed by Danish astronomer Ole Christensen Rømer in the early 18th century. It sets the freezing point of water at 7.5°Rø and the boiling point at 60°Rø. The Rømer scale played a crucial role in the development of later temperature scales, including the Fahrenheit scale, and is an important milestone in the history of temperature measurement.
