CalculateHeatIndex(Temperature, Ratio)

The heat index (or apparent temperature) is used to measure the amount of discomfort during the summer months when heat and humidity often combine to make it feel hotter than it actually is. The heat index is usually used for afternoon high temperatures.

CalculateHeatIndex(Temperature, RelativeHumidity)

The heat index (or apparent temperature) is used to measure the amount of discomfort during the summer months when heat and humidity often combine to make it feel hotter than it actually is. The heat index is usually used for afternoon high temperatures.

CalculateHeatIndex(Temperature, Ratio)
