Slot: conversion offset (conversion_offset)

A value used along with a conversion factor to relate a unit to its corresponding unit in the International System of Units. In the equation below, the conversion offset is 459.669607 and the conversion factor is 5/9.

y degrees Fahrenheit = (y + 459.669607) x 5/9 degrees Kelvin

To convert from Fahrenheit to Kelvin, first add the offset and then multiply by the conversion factor.

To convert from Kelvin to Fahrenheit, reverse the steps: first divide by the conversion factor and then subtract the offset.
