Linear Interpolation in Excel Guide

This document contains a table showing the relationship between air velocity and thermal resistance. The table lists air velocity in feet per minute (FPM) along the x-axis and thermal resistance in degrees Celsius per watt (°C/W) along the y-axis. It includes tabulated data points as well as interpolated values. The document also demonstrates using Excel's FORECAST function to interpolate new thermal resistance values based on given air velocities.
