Minimum Wind Pressure at Vessel Calculator

Minimum Wind Pressure - (Measured in Newton per Square Meter) - Minimum Wind Pressure refers to the lowest amount of wind pressure that is recorded at a specific location.
Maximum Wind Velocity - (Measured in Kilometer per Hour) - Maximum Wind Velocity is the speed of the wind and it affects weather patterns, air temperature, and air pressure.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Wind Velocity: 122 Kilometer per Hour --> 122 Kilometer per Hour No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p_w = 0.05*(V_w)^(2) --> 0.05*(122)^(2)

Evaluating ... ...

p_w = 744.2

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

744.2 Pascal -->744.2 Newton per Square Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

744.2 Newton per Square Meter <-- Minimum Wind Pressure

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Design Load?

Design load is the maximum load that a structure, component or system is designed to carry or withstand. It is the amount of load that a structure must be designed to support according to the applicable building code. This is determined by considering the expected loads, such as those due to gravity, wind, snow, seismic, and the effects of temperature and moisture.

How to Calculate Minimum Wind Pressure at Vessel?

Minimum Wind Pressure at Vessel calculator uses Minimum Wind Pressure = 0.05*(Maximum Wind Velocity)^(2) to calculate the Minimum Wind Pressure, Minimum Wind Pressure at Vessel refers to the force exerted by the movement of air or wind against an vessel. The pressure exerted by the wind on a vessel depends on several factors, such as the velocity of the wind, the size and shape of the Vessel, and the density of the air. Minimum Wind Pressure is denoted by p_w symbol.
