WeatherHelper.CalculateWindForce(Density, Speed, Double) Method

Definition

Calculates the wind force on an object.

public static UnitsNet.Pressure CalculateWindForce (UnitsNet.Density densityOfAir, UnitsNet.Speed windSpeed, double pressureCoefficient = 1);
static member CalculateWindForce : UnitsNet.Density * UnitsNet.Speed * double -> UnitsNet.Pressure
Public Shared Function CalculateWindForce (densityOfAir As Density, windSpeed As Speed, Optional pressureCoefficient As Double = 1) As Pressure

Parameters

densityOfAir
UnitsNet.Density

The denisty of the air, calculated using one of the overloads of CalculateAirDensity(Pressure, Temperature)

windSpeed
UnitsNet.Speed

The speed of the wind

pressureCoefficient
Double

Pressure coefficient for the shape of the object. Use 1 for a rectangular object directly facing the wind

Returns

UnitsNet.Pressure

The Pressure the wind applies on the object
