Basically title, you always hear “windchill only affects humans” but we use fans to cool things all the time?
In: Physics
So what’s happening is basically
If a human is 90 degrees and the air is 90 degrees. Moving air gives windchill
If an object is 90 degrees and the air is 90 degrees nothing happens
If an object is 90 degrees but the air is 50 degrees? Well the heat will radiate to the point where a pocket of 90 degree air will form around an object. Blow on it? It displaces that hot air with cool air
Energy is a zero sum game. If the air gets warmer the object gets cooler.
