The formula to calculate the Sensible Heat Factor (SHF) is:
\[ \text{SHF} = \frac{\text{SH}}{\text{SH} + \text{LH}} \]
Sensible Heat Factor is the ratio of sensible heat to total heat. Sensible Heat is a type of energy released or absorbed in the atmosphere. Latent Heat is the heat that increases the specific humidity without a change in temperature.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{SHF} = \frac{0.009}{0.009 + 1} \approx 0.0089197224975223 \]
The Sensible Heat Factor is approximately 0.0089197224975223.
