Horsepower Correction Factors Using the correction factor charts determine the separate correction factors for pressure (fP), temperature (fT), and humidity (fH) and the associated composite correction factor (FC) based upon the specific atmospheric conditions cited. Atmospheric (fP) X (fT) X (fH) = (FC) 31.
