Table 2.

Equations used for the calculation of WCT and FFT[23]

Parameters Equations
Wind chill temperature
WCT=13.12+0.621*T11.37*V0.16+0.3965*T*V0.16
Facial frostbite time FFT=(24.5*(0.667*V+4.8)+2111)*(4.8T)1.668

V is the wind speed (in kilometer per hour) and T is the air temperature (in degree Celsius). FFT, facial frostbite time; WCT, wind chill temperature.
