A kelvin is a unit used to measure temperature change.

The kelvin is the SI base unit for temperature change in the metric system. Kelvins can be abbreviated as K; for example, 1 kelvin can be written as 1 K.

How to Convert Kelvins

To convert kelvins to another unit of temperature change, you need to multiply the value by a conversion factor. A conversion factor is a numerical value used to change the units of a measurement without changing the value.[1]

You can find the conversion factors for kelvins in the conversion table below.

Then, multiply the temperature change measurement by the conversion factor to find the equivalent value in the desired unit of measurement.

kelvins × conversion factor = result

You can also use a calculator, such as one of the converters below, for the conversion.
