Units explained
Planck Temperature
The Planck temperature (T_P) is the natural unit of temperature, about 1.416784×10³² kelvins, constructed purely from the fundamental constants ħ, c, G, and k. It is widely regarded as the highest temperature at which known physics remains meaningful.
Arises from Max Planck's 1899 system of natural units, which combines the speed of light, the gravitational constant, the reduced Planck constant, and the Boltzmann constant into universal base quantities independent of any human artifact.
Cosmology and quantum-gravity research, where it marks the temperature of the universe roughly one Planck time after the Big Bang. No laboratory process approaches even a trillionth of a trillionth of it.
Defined within Max Planck's natural-unit system proposed in Germany in 1899; the modern recommended value (1.416784×10³² K) is maintained by the CODATA fundamental-constants adjustment.
Réaumur
The degree Réaumur (°Ré) sets the freezing point of water at 0 °Ré and the boiling point at 80 °Ré, so one degree Réaumur equals exactly 1.25 kelvins (5/4 K).
Devised by French scientist René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur using alcohol thermometers whose working liquid expanded 80 parts per thousand between the freezing and boiling points of water — the origin of the 80-degree span.
Once dominant across 18th- and 19th-century Europe, especially France, Germany, and Russia. It survives today mainly in traditional cheese-making — Parmigiano-Reggiano and Swiss alpine dairies still specify milk temperatures in °Ré.
Introduced by Réaumur in Paris in 1730; it faded from general use after France adopted the Celsius scale with the metric system in the 1790s.
Planck Temperature to Réaumur conversion formula
Note: this conversion uses the CODATA recommended value of the Planck temperature (1.416784×10³² K), which carries a small experimental uncertainty from the gravitational constant G.
The exact relationship between planck temperatures and degrees réaumur:
To convert planck temperatures to degrees réaumur, multiply the value by 1.133427e+32, then subtract 218.52. To reverse, add 218.52 to the value, then multiply by 8.822799e-33.
Reference anchors: water freezes at 1.927958e-30 T_P = 0 °Ré and boils at 2.633782e-30 T_P = 80 °Ré (at standard atmospheric pressure).

Step-by-step: convert planck temperatures to degrees réaumur
- Write down the temperature in planck temperatures (T_P).
- Multiply the value by 1.133427e+32, then subtract 218.52.
- The result is the same temperature expressed in degrees réaumur (°Ré).
- To reverse, add 218.52 to the value, then multiply by 8.822799e-33 — or open the Réaumur to Planck Temperature converter.
Worked examples
Example 1 — Convert 1 T_P to °Ré:
