The flight altitude may be determined in a variety of ways. This paper analyzes the method based on the measurement of pressure and temperature. The authors particularly draw attention to the influence of the temperature and pressure measurement errors on the accuracy of the determination of flight altitude. It also depends on the method of approximation. The discussed issues have been described with...
In aviation knowing the atmosphere parameters is extremely important for reasons related to flight safety. Determination of static atmosphere for different airfields based on temperature and pressure measurements at different altitudes becomes particularly important. For standard atmosphere such parameters as airfield temperature, pressure and temperature gradient are known. Under actual conditions...
The paper presents the problem of determining static atmosphere parameters assuming the relation between the temperature and the pressure described with the polytropic process. In general, the initial state of the polytropic process expressed with pressure p0, temperature T0is unknown, similarly to polytropic exponent n. Temperature and pressure can be measured during the flight. The measured values...
