The kin is a standard system of measuring heat.
Amount of Kinetic Energy it takes to move 1 El for 1 Millipar in 1 Galactic Instant.
- 0 = motionless (no energy)
- 350 = water freezes (low energy)
- 6,000 = blue star (high energy)
[edit] Earth Conversions
There are 10 Kin (Kinetic Units) per 5 Kelvin and 5 Celsius There are 10 Kin (Kinetic Units) per 9 Fahrenheit
350 Kin = 0 Celsius, 32 Fahrenheit, and 273.15 Kelvin
The temperature of Kin is equal to 2 * the sum of the temperature of Celisius and 175: Tk = (10/5)*(TC+175)
The temperature of Kin is equal to 10/9 * the sum of the temperature of Fahrenheit and 290.5: Tk = (10/9)*(TF+280.5)
The temperature of Kin is equal to 2 * the sum of the temperature of Kelvin and -98.15. Tk = (10/5)*(TK-98.15)
As an example:
To convert 50 degrees Celsius to Kin, add 50 with 175 (225) and multiply 2 by 225. The answer is 450 Kin.
