Kuinka laskea Wind Chill

Mikä on Wind Chill?

Wind chill is the perceived decrease in air temperature felt by the body on exposed skin due to wind. Wind accelerates heat loss from the body, making it feel colder than the actual air temperature.

Kaava

Wind chill ≈ 35.74 + 0.6215T − 35.75×(V^0.16) + 0.4275T×(V^0.16) where T is temp(°F), V is wind(mph)

Usein kysytyt kysymykset

What does wind chill actually measure?

Wind chill is the apparent temperature a body feels due to wind cooling the skin. It's not an actual temperature, but how cold it feels.

At what wind speed does wind chill plateau?

Above approximately 50 mph, wind chill increases very slowly. At 35 mph, you've captured most of the effect.

Why do I need to know wind chill?

Wind chill helps assess frostbite risk. Below −20°F wind chill, exposed skin can freeze in under 30 minutes.
