3/7/2024 0 Comments Wind chill motorcycle chart![]() I think I might be able to solve this debate with a question, to which the answer solves this riddle. I’m pretty sure my car and motorcycle don’t feel anything, but I sure do when I’m on the motorcycle. Fortunately, now that I’ve moved from Jacksonville, FL to Stuart, FL, I don’t use my cold weather gear anymore. I use this table when deciding whether to drive the car to work or ride the motorcycle. I also included a PDF version of the document. There is a mathematical formula for wind chill. That’s why we always tried to park heading away from the wind in North Dakota. But only if it’s passing over the engine. Simply, wind has an effect on how quickly an engine reaches ambient temperature. Therefore, the ambient temperature and rate of wind can be readily factored in to determine how quickly heat will be dissipated and thus, what eth equivalent ambient temperature dissipation rate would be without wind…which gives you the chill factor.īut in truth I think we’re all arguing semantics. With X being a lower value, Z will be higher. In short, a specfic mass generating X btus of heat per hour will dissipate heat in a Y mph wind at a rate of Z. ![]() I would also argue that an “internal heat source” is a varable in the equation used to calculate the chill factor that the news warns us about, but in an automobile with the engine not running the value of that variable is simply zero. I would argue that it isn’t a calculation, but rather a mathematical description of how quickly heat is dissipated from an object.
