Describe the bug Here are the differences we have identified:
Wind Chill Index (WCI)
Wind Chill Temperature (TWC)
wci = (10.45 + 10 * v**0.5 - v) * (33 - tdb)
The result is calculated in W/m² and considers the heat loss from a cylindrical flask.
twc = 13.12 + 0.6215 * ta - 11.37 * (v^0.16) + 0.3965 * ta * (v^0.16)
The result is given in °C, representing the localized cooling effect on skin due to wind.
@FedericoTartarini and Marcel to review Should we make modifications to the corresponding function file calcTWC.R in the R package?
I believe that these two parameters sound similar, but are actually different concepts. py seems to refer to AHSRAE, while R to ISO
