| The '''heat index''' ('''HI''') or '''humiture''' or '''humidex''' (not to be confused with the [[humidex|Canadian humidex]]) is an index that combines [[air]] [[temperature]] and [[relative humidity]] in an attempt to determine the human-perceived equivalent temperature—how hot it feels. The result is also known as the "felt air temperature" or "[[apparent temperature]]". For example, when the temperature is {{j|90 °F}} {{j|(32 °C)}} with very high humidity, the heat index can be about {{j|105 °F (41 °C).}}

| The human body normally cools itself by [[perspiration]], or sweating. [[Heat]] is removed from the body by [[evaporation]] of that sweat. However, relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate because the higher vapor content of the surrounding air does not allow the maximum amount of evaporation from the body to occur. This results in a lower rate of heat removal from the body, hence the sensation of being overheated. This effect is subjective; its measurement has been based on subjective descriptions of how hot subjects feel for a given temperature and humidity. This results in a heat index that relates one combination of temperature and humidity to another one at higher temperature and lower humidity.

| == History ==
| |
| The heat index was developed in 1978 by [[George Winterling]] as the "humiture" and was adopted by the USA's [[National Weather Service]] a year later.<ref>[http://www.news4jax.com/news/19262258/detail.html George Winterling: A Lifelong Passion For Weather] [[WJXT]], April 23, 2009</ref> It is derived from work carried out by Robert G. Steadman.<ref name=SteadmanI>The Assessment of Sultriness. Part I: A Temperature-Humidity Index Based on Human Physiology and Clothing Science, R. G. Steadman, Journal of Applied Meteorology, July 1979, Vol 18 No7, pp861-873 {{doi|10.1175/1520-0450(1979)018<0861:TAOSPI>2.0.CO;2}} [http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/1520-0450%281979%29018%3C0861%3ATAOSPI%3E2.0.CO%3B2]</ref><ref>The Assessment of Sultriness. Part II: Effects of Wind, Extra Radiation and Barometric Pressure on Apparent Temperature Journal of Applied Meteorology, R. G. Steadman, July 1979, Vol 18 No7, pp874-885</ref> Like the [[wind chill]] index, the heat index contains assumptions about the human body mass and height, clothing, amount of physical activity, thickness of blood, sunlight and ultraviolet radiation exposure, and the wind speed. Significant deviations from these will result in heat index values which do not accurately reflect the perceived temperature.<ref>[http://www.slate.com/id/2123486/fr/rss/ How do they figure the heat index? - By Daniel Engber - Slate Magazine<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

| | |
| In [[Canada]], the similar [[humidex]] is used in place of the heat index. While both the humidex and the heat index are calculated using dew point, the humidex uses a dew point of {{convert|45|°F|°C}} as a base, whereas the heat index uses a dew point base of {{convert|57|°F|°C}}. Further, the heat index uses heat balance equations which account for many variables other than vapor pressure, which is used exclusively in the humidex calculation. A joint committee formed by the United States and Canada to resolve differences has since been disbanded.
| |
| | |
| The heat index is defined so as to equal the actual air temperature when the [[partial pressure]] of [[water vapor]] is equal to a baseline value of 1.6 [[Pascal (unit)|kPa]]. At [[standard atmospheric pressure]] (101.325 kPa), this baseline corresponds to a [[dew point]] of {{j|14 °C}} {{j|(57 °F)}} and a [[mixing ratio]] of 0.01 (10 g of water vapor per kilogram of dry air).<ref name=SteadmanI/> This corresponds to an air temperature of {{j|25 °C}} {{j|(77 °F)}} and relative humidity of 50% in the sea-level [[psychrometric chart]]. | |
| | |
| At high temperatures, the level of ''relative'' humidity needed to make the heat index higher, than the actual temperature, is lower than at cooler temperatures. For example, at approximately {{j|27 °C}} {{j|(80 °F)}}, the heat index will agree with the actual temperature if the relative humidity is 45%, but at about {{j|43 °C (110 °F),}} any relative-humidity reading above 17% will make the heat index higher than {{j|43 °C}}.
| |
| | |
| The formula described is considered valid only if the actual temperature is above {{j|27 °C}} {{j|(80 °F)}}, dew point temperatures greater than {{j|12 °C (54 °F),}} and relative humidities higher than 40%.<ref>[http://www.campbellsci.com/documents/technical-papers/heatindx.pdf Heat Index Campbell Scientific Inc.] (PDF file), CampbellSci.com.</ref> The heat index and humidex figures are based on temperature measurements taken in the shade and not the sun, so extra care must be taken while in the sun. The heat index also does not factor in the effects of wind, which lowers the apparent temperature.
| |
| | |
| Sometimes the heat index and the [[wind chill]] are denoted collectively by the single term "apparent temperature", "relative outdoor temperature", or "feels like".
| |
| | |
| ==Meteorological considerations==
| |
| | |
| Outdoors in open conditions, as the relative humidity increases, first haze and ultimately a thicker cloud cover develops, reducing the amount of direct sunlight reaching the surface. Thus, there is an inverse relationship between maximum potential temperature and maximum potential relative humidity. Because of this factor, it was once believed that the highest heat index reading actually attainable anywhere on Earth is approximately {{convert|71|°C|°F|abbr=on}}. However, in [[Dhahran]], [[Saudi Arabia]] on July 8, 2003, the [[dew point]] was {{convert|35|°C|°F|abbr=on}} while the temperature was {{convert|42|°C|°F|abbr=on}}, resulting in a heat index of {{convert|78|°C|°F|abbr=on}}. This is comparable to the temperatures that are recommended to kill bacteria in many meat products, and it is common in a [[sauna]]. High heat-index values also indicate that intense thunderstorms are approaching, depending on the intensity of the cold front, causing more violent storms.<ref>

Have you been thinking "how do I speed up my computer" lately? Well chances are should you are reading this article; then you are experiencing one of many computer issues which thousands of people discover that they face on a regular basis.
Another solution would be to offer the computer program with a new msvcr71 file. Often, once the file has been corrupted or damaged, it usually no longer be able to function like it did before thus it's only natural to substitute the file. Simply download another msvcr71.dll file from the internet. Frequently, the file comes in a zip formatting. Extract the files from the zip folder and area them accordingly inside this location: C:\Windows\System32. Afterward, re-register the file. Click Start plus then choose Run. Once the Run window appears, kind "cmd". Press Enter and then sort "regsvr32 -u msvcr71.dll" followed by "regsvr32 msvcr71.dll". Press Enter again plus the file ought to be registered accordingly.
One of the many overlooked factors a computer can slow down is because the registry has become corrupt. The registry is basically your computer's running system. Anytime you're running a computer, entries are being produced plus deleted from your registry. The impact this has is it leaves false entries in your registry. So, a computer's resources should work about these false entries.
Always see to it which we have installed antivirus, anti-spyware plus anti-adware programs plus have them updated on a regular basis. This can help stop windows XP running slow.
When it comes to software, this really is the vital part because it is the one running your program because well as other programs needed in the works. Always keep the cleanliness of the program from obsolete data by getting a advantageous tuneup utilities 2014. Protect it from a virus on the net by providing a workable virus security program. You could have a monthly clean up by running your defragmenter program. This way it can enhance the performance of the computer and for we to avoid any mistakes. If you think something is wrong with all the software, and we don't learn how to fix it then refer to a technician.
2)Fix the Windows registry to speed up PC- The registry is a complex section of the computer which holds different types of information within the things you do on a computer daily.
