Linear Interpolation

This document contains a table showing the relationship between air velocity, in feet per minute (FPM), and thermal resistance, in °C/W. Thermal resistance decreases as air velocity increases, with thermal resistance ranging from 373.0 °C/W when air velocity is 0 FPM to 55.0 °C/W when air velocity is 1800 FPM. The document also demonstrates how to perform linear interpolation to estimate thermal resistance values between those shown in the table.
