Measured cooling rates of bottles of water

Cooling depends on two things
Difference in temperature between bottle (or skin) and the environmental air Wind speed, which controls how quickly cold air is mixed down to the bottle/skin, and how rapidly warm air near bottle/skin is moved away.
4
Led to Wind Chill Formula Estimating Loss of Heat as a Function of Tempeature and Wind Speed
6
Formula Changed in 2001
