Boiling Point at Altitude Calculator

Boiling Point: -- °C

What is this calculator used for?

This calculator is used to estimate the boiling point of water at different altitudes. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases, leading to a lower boiling point. This is particularly useful for cooking, chemistry, and high-altitude living.

How to use this calculator

  • Enter the altitude in meters in the input field.
  • The boiling point of water at that altitude will automatically be displayed below.

Formula

Boiling Point (°C) = 100 - (Altitude in meters / 285)

Example

For an altitude of 1000 meters:

Boiling Point = 100 - (1000 / 285) ≈ 96.49 °C
