Kā aprēķināt Heat Index Calc

Kas ir Heat Index Calc?

The heat index (also called apparent temperature or feels-like temperature in summer) estimates how hot it actually feels based on air temperature and relative humidity. High humidity prevents sweat from evaporating effectively, reducing the body's ability to cool itself. The Rothfusz (1990) regression equation used by NOAA and the NWS is the most widely accepted formula.

Formula

HI = −42.379 + 2.04901523T + 10.14333127R − 0.22475541TR
HI
−42 — −42

Worked Examples

Ievade
35°C, 60% humidity
Rezultāts
Heat index ≈ 42°C — feels significantly hotter
Health risk threshold
Ievade
40°C, 80% humidity
Rezultāts
Heat index ≈ 60°C — extreme danger
Can be fatal without cooling
