The Kelvin scale is an absolute, thermodynamic temperature scale using as its null point absolute zero, the temperature at which all thermal motion ceases in the classical description of thermodynamics. The kelvin is defined as the fraction 1/273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water (273.16 K (0.01 °C; 32.02 °F)). |
