Description

Réaumur (°Ré): The 18th Century French Temperature Scale

The Réaumur scale, symbolized as °Ré, was introduced by French scientist René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur in the early 18th century. It sets the freezing point of water at 0°Ré and the boiling point at 80°Ré. This scale was widely used in Europe, particularly in France and Germany, for several decades. While it has been largely replaced by the Celsius scale, the Réaumur scale remains a significant part of the history of thermometry.

Newton (°N): Isaac Newton's Temperature Scale

The Newton scale, represented as °N, was proposed by Sir Isaac Newton in the early 18th century. It is a linear temperature scale based on the freezing and boiling points of water, divided into 33 degrees. Although not widely adopted, the Newton scale is notable for its historical significance in the evolution of temperature measurement and its role in early scientific experimentation.
