工作原理
- 1
Enter the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.
- 2
Subtract the Fahrenheit value from 212 (the boiling point of water in °F).
- 3
Multiply the result by 5/6 to get degrees Delisle.
- 4
The result is the temperature on the Delisle scale.
(212 - fahrenheit) * 5 / 6常见问题
What is the Delisle scale?
The Delisle scale (°De) is a temperature scale invented by Joseph-Nicolas Delisle in 1732. It sets the boiling point of water at 0 °De and the freezing point at 150 °De, so higher numbers mean colder temperatures.
How do I convert from Delisle back to Fahrenheit?
Use the inverse formula: °F = 212 - (°De × 6/5). For example, 100 °De equals 212 - 120 = 92 °F.
What is the absolute zero in Delisle?
Absolute zero (-459.67 °F) corresponds to approximately 559.73 °De, since (212 - (-459.67)) × 5/6 = 559.725.

公式
此计算器背后的数学公式，供您核对结果。
Fahrenheit to Delisle
The Delisle scale is inverted relative to Fahrenheit: as Fahrenheit increases, Delisle decreases. The factor 5/6 comes from the ratio of the scale intervals (180 °F between freezin
Example:
Input: °F = 68
Calculation: (212 - 68) × 5/6 = 144 × 5/6
Result: 120 °De
实际应用场景
此计算在日常生活中的应用。
Historical temperature conversion
Convert modern Fahrenheit readings to the Delisle scale for historical documents or scientific literature.
Example: A recipe from 1740 calls for 100 °De; convert to °F.
Educational demonstration
Teach students about temperature scales and how they can be inverted or have different zero points.
Example: Show that 0 °De is boiling and 150 °De is freezing.
Cross-checking calculations
Use the Delisle scale as an alternative to verify conversions between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Example: Convert 50 °F to °De and then back to °F to check.
提示与常见错误
Tips
- Remember that the Delisle scale is inverted: a higher °De means a lower temperature.
- For quick mental estimates, note that 1 °F change equals 5/6 °De change.
- Use the freezing and boiling points as anchors: 32 °F = 150 °De and 212 °F = 0 °De.
- When converting, always subtract the Fahrenheit value from 212 first, not the other way around.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Forgetting to subtract from 212, which would give a negative or incorrect result.
- Using the wrong factor, such as 5/9 (Celsius conversion) instead of 5/6.
- Confusing the direction: thinking that higher °De means hotter, when it actually means colder.
假设与限制
- Use the stated inputs and units.
- Results are estimates for planning and education.
- Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
