Contributor: PETER KOLDING & KERRY SOKALSKY { Given the time of year, I offer the following pascal function, (my translation of M. Cooper's WINDCHILL public domain C code): Calculates windchill, given temperature (Fahrenheit) and windspeed (mph) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: I have converted Mr. Kolding's original function so that it accepts and returns real parameters. I have also offered a Metric equivalent. - Kerry (SWAG Support Team) } Function WindChill(FahrenheitTemp, Mph_WindSpeed : Real) : Real; begin WindChill := 0.0817 * (3.71 * Sqrt(Mph_WindSpeed) + 5.81 - 0.25 * Mph_WindSpeed) * (FahrenheitTemp - 91.4) + 91.4; end; Function MetricWindChill(CelciusTemp, Kph_WindSpeed : Real) : Real; Var FahrenheitTemp, Mph_WindSpeed : Real; begin { Convert Celcius to Fahrenhiet - VERY exact :) } FahrenheitTemp := (CelciusTemp * 492 / 273.16) + 32; { Convert Kph to Mph } Mph_WindSpeed := Kph_WindSpeed * 1.609; { Use exact same formula as above } MetricWindChill := 0.0817 * (3.71 * Sqrt(Mph_WindSpeed) + 5.81 - 0.25 * Mph_WindSpeed) * (FahrenheitTemp - 91.4) + 91.4; end; begin { Room Temperature Test: } Writeln('68øF + 0 Mph Wind Speed: ', WindChill(68, 0) : 0 : 2); Writeln('20øC + 0 Kph Wind Speed: ', MetricWindChill(20, 0) : 0 : 2); end.
