Abstract: The concept of windchill as a measure of the combined effects of low temperature and wind is reviewed. An analysis is presented of the effect of these variables on a person dressed for cold climates and takes account of ...
The Assessment of Sultriness. Part II: Effects of Wind, Extra Radiation and Barometric Pressure on Apparent Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A scale is derived in which any likely combination of summer temperature, humidity, wind and extra radiation can be expressed as apparent temperature. The effect of extra radiation (direct and indirect insolation; terrestrial ...
The Assessment of Sultriness. Part I: A Temperature-Humidity Index Based on Human Physiology and Clothing Science
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using as bases the amount of clothing needed to achieve thermal comfort and the reduction in the skin's resistance needed to obtain thermal equilibrium, the relative sultriness of warm-humid and hot-arid summer climates ...
