Gust Response Factor using Wind Pressure Formula Elements

Variables
Gust Response Factor
The Gust Response Factor is to account for fluctuations in wind speed.
Symbol: G
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Wind Pressure
Wind Pressure is the pressure due to the wind.
Symbol: p
Measurement: PressureUnit: pdl/ft²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Velocity Pressure
Velocity Pressure is the pressure required to accelerate air from zero velocity to some velocity and is proportional to the kinetic energy of the air stream.
Symbol: q
Measurement: PressureUnit: pdl/ft²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Pressure Coefficient
Pressure Coefficient is the ratio of pressure forces to inertial forces. It is a dimensionless number.
Symbol: Cp
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
