Input interpretation
average raindrop diameter
Input value
rainfall rate | 25 mm/h (millimeters per hour)
Equation
1/(d_av/cm) = 48.5/(R/(mm/h))^(2/9) | | R | rainfall rate d_av | average raindrop diameter
Units
Result
average raindrop diameter | 0.4216 mm (millimeters) = 0.0166 inches = 0.04216 cm (centimeters)
