The wind chill factor represents the equivalent air temperature at a standard wind speed that would produce the same heat loss as the given temperature and wind speed. one formula for computing the equivalent temperature is w(t) = {â (t@33-(10.45+10âv-v)(33-t)/2204@33-1.5958(33-t) ) ⤠â (if 0â¤v<1.79@if 1.79â¤v<20@if vâ¥20) where v represents the wind speed (in meters per second) and t represents the air temperature . compute the wind chill for an air temperature of 15°c and a wind speed of 12 meters per second. (round the answer to one decimal place.) show your work.

The given equation is very confusing, next time please type it correctly. However I believe the correct form of the equation based on other sources is:

 

Wind chill factor:

W (t) = 33 – {(10.45 + 10 sqrtv - v)(33 - t)}/2204 

 

We are given the following variables:

v = wind speed = 12 m / s

t = air temperature = 15°C

 

To get the value of the wind chill factor W(t) simply plug in the variables in the equation and calculate:

 

W (t) = 33 - (10.45 + 10 sqrt(12) - 12)(33 - 15)}/2204

W (t) = 33 – 0.27

W (t) = 32.73
