  2. Barometric formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barometric_formula

    The reference value for ρ b for b = 0 is the defined sea level value, ρ 0 = 1.2250 kg/m 3 or 0.0023768908 slug/ft 3. Values of ρ b of b = 1 through b = 6 are obtained from the application of the appropriate member of the pair equations 1 and 2 for the case when h = h b +1 .

  3. Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure

    The mean sea-level pressure (MSLP) is the atmospheric pressure at mean sea level. This is the atmospheric pressure normally given in weather reports on radio, television, and newspapers or on the Internet. [citation needed] The altimeter setting in aviation is an atmospheric pressure adjustment. Average sea-level pressure is 1,013.25 hPa (29. ...

    With a temperature lapse rate of −6.5 °C (-11.7 °F) per km (roughly −2 °C (-3.6 °F) per 1,000 ft), the table interpolates to the standard mean sea level values of 15 °C (59 °F) temperature, 101,325 pascals (14.6959 psi) (1 atm) pressure, and a density of 1.2250 kilograms per cubic meter (0.07647 lb/cu ft).

  5. Standard sea-level conditions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_sea-level_conditions

    Standard sea-level conditions (SSL), [1] also known as sea-level standard (SLS), defines a set of atmospheric conditions for physical calculations. The term "standard sea level " is used to indicate that values of properties are to be taken to be the same as those standard at sea level, and is done to define values for use in general calculations.

  6. Density altitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_altitude

    , station pressure (static atmospheric pressure) in inches of mercury (inHg); T {\displaystyle T} , station temperature (outside air temperature) in degrees FahrenheitF). Note that the NWS standard specifies that the density altitude should be rounded to the nearest 100 ft.

  7. Pressure altitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_altitude

    Old altimeters were typically limited to displaying the altitude when set between 950 mb and 1030 mb. Standard pressure, the baseline used universally, is 1013.25 hectopascals (hPa), which is equivalent to 1013.25 mb or 29.92 inches of mercury (inHg). This setting is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure at mean sea level (MSL) in

  8. U.S. Standard Atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Standard_Atmosphere

    To allow modeling conditions below mean sea level, the troposphere is actually extended to −2,000 feet (−610 m), where the temperature is 66.1 °F (18.9 °C), pressure is 15.79 pounds per square inch (108,900 Pa), and density is 0.08106 pounds per cubic foot (1.2985 kg/m 3).
