All altimeters at or above FL180 use mean sea level pressure of 29.92 inches of Hg (1013.2 mb) as their reference setting. 2 atmospheric motion actually displaces those pressure surfaces upward over high pressure regions and downward over low pressure systems. Figure 6 depicts this more realistic situation. Pressure planes or surfaces exist as domes over high pressure and as bowls under low pressure. They intersect the surface map at the isobars. A section of these pressure surfaces in Figure 6 has been removed and every other pressure surface has also been removed for clarity of explanation. The height of the pressure surfaces is also greatly exaggerated for better viewing. ASOS altimeter settings tell which pressure surface is currently intersecting the earth at that airport. That pressure sur- face is at the same height above mean sea level as the runway is. Departing the air- port, your aircraft is climbing above that pressure surface.

To avoid problems, you need to keep your little cockpit pal adjust- ed to the nearest altimeter setting or pres- sure plane. Let’s see how this works on a flight from Seattle, WA (SEA) to Rapid City, SD (RAP). Figure 7 is that route using a close up view from Figure 6. Before departing Seattle, you set the altimeter to read the field elevation of 429 feet. The pressure setting of 30.59 inches (1036 mb) shows in the Kollsman window, and is the same pressure given to you on the ATIS broadcast. Enroute the altimeter reports alti- tudes relative to that 1036 mb (30.59 inch) pressure surface unless or until you change the setting in the Kollsman win- dow.

  • Density Altitude
    Federal Aviation Administration Density Altitude FAA–P–8740–2 • AFS–8 (2008) HQ-08561 Density Altitude Note: This document was adapted from the original Pamphlet P-8740-2 on density altitude. Introduction Although density altitude is not a common subject for “hangar flying” discussions, pilots need to understand this topic. Density altitude has a significant (and inescapable) influence on aircraft and engine performance, so every pilot needs to thoroughly understand its effects. Hot, high, and humid weather conditions can cause a routine takeoff or landing to become an accident in less time than it takes to tell about it. Density Altitude Defined Types of Altitude Pilots sometimes confuse the term “density altitude” with other definitions of altitude. To review, here are some types of altitude: • Indicated Altitude is the altitude shown on the altimeter. • True Altitude is height above mean sea level (MSL). • Absolute Altitude is height above ground level (AGL). • Pressure Altitude is the indicated altitude when an altimeter is set to 29.92 in Hg (1013 hPa in other parts of the world). It is primarily used in aircraft performance calculations and in high-altitude flight. • Density Altitude is formally defined as “pressure altitude corrected for nonstandard temperature variations.” Why Does Density Altitude Matter? High Density Altitude = Decreased Performance The formal definition of density altitude is certainly correct, but the important thing to understand is that density altitude is an indicator of aircraft performance. The term comes from the fact that the density of the air decreases with altitude. A “high” density altitude means that air density is reduced, which has an adverse impact on aircraft performance.

  • Solar Energy Generation Model for High Altitude Long Endurance Platforms
    Solar Energy Generation Model for High Altitude Long Endurance Platforms Mathilde Brizon∗ KTH - Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden For designing and evaluating new concepts for HALE platforms, the energy provided by solar cells is a key factor. The purpose of this thesis is to model the electrical power which can be harnessed by such a platform along any flight trajectory for different aircraft designs. At first, a model of the solar irradiance received at high altitude will be performed using the solar irradiance models already existing for ground level applications as a basis. A calculation of the efficiency of the energy generation will be performed taking into account each solar panel's position as well as shadows casted by the aircraft's structure. The evaluated set of trajectories allows a stationary positioning of a hale platform with varying wind conditions, time of day and latitude for an exemplary aircraft configuration. The qualitative effects of specific parameter changes on the harnessed solar energy is discussed as well as the fidelity of the energy generation model results.

  • Altimetry for Mountaineers and Hikers a Brief Summary
    Altimetry for Mountaineers and Hikers A brief summary • Understanding Altimetry How changes in weather can affect your pressure altimeter. How elevation effects your pressure altimeter How air temperature effects air density and your climbing performance By: Derek Taylor . WTS Senior Instructor . BMS Assistant Instructor . Aerosciences, Lockheed Martin Astronautics . Certified Flight Instructor (MEI, CFII) Altimetry – Why is Altimetry Important? You need to understand how to use an altimeter, but also what factors can effect its accuracy. Good mountaineering /hiking practice usually requires the use of an altimeter. Topography and Contour maps are very limited without knowing what your “correct” elevation is. A map & compass provides you with information about where you are horizontally. If you know exactly where you are on a map then you can determine your elevation. But an altimeter can “directly” provide you with elevation. Since we move about in a 3-dimenisonal world, then knowing how to use an altimeter, and what its limitations are, is just as important as knowing how to use a compass. – With an Altimeter you can Perform Bearing-Elevation Intersects: The point at which a compass bearing intersects an elevation contour line. Use your compass and altimeter collectively to locate your position. Perform Feature-Elevation Intersects: The point at which a known feature, such as a creek, road, or ridge intersects your known elevation. Use your altimeter/barometer to predict weather changes. High pressure systems are generally associated with stable, dry weather. Low pressure systems are the predictors of possible rain, snow, thunder activity, and cooler temperatures. Use your altimeter to estimate elevation gain per hour, and adjust your pace accordingly.

  • Altitude Sickness Fact Sheet
    Altitude Sickness Fact Sheet At high elevation, you may experience a potentially life threatening condition called altitude sickness. This is exacerbated if you ascend in elevation quickly. At 8,000 feet, there is only ~75% of the available oxygen at sea level. Oxygen decreases ~3% with each 1000 feet in elevation. Altitude sickness is caused by the body not being able to get enough oxygen. There are three types of altitude sickness: Acute Mountain Sickness, High Altitude Pulmonary Edema, and High Altitude Cerebral Edema. SYMPTOMS Acute Mountain Sickness • Lack of appetite, nausea, or vomiting • Fatigue • Dizziness • Insomnia • Shortness of breath upon exertion • Nosebleed • Persistent rapid pulse • Swelling of hands, feet, and/or face High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE) • Symptoms similar to bronchitis • Persistent dry cough • Fever • Shortness of breath even at rest High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE) • Headache that does not respond to medication • Difficulty walking • Altered mental state (confusion, changes in alertness, disorientation, irrational behavior) • Loss of consciousness • Increased nausea • Blurred vision or retinal hemorrhage PREVENTION If your hike starts at high elevation, spend a few days adjusting to the altitude prior to any major physical exertion. It is best to sleep no more than 1,500 feet (457.2 m) higher than you did the night before. This helps the body adjust gradually to the decreased amount of oxygen. Contact your primary care physician for an evaluation prior to travelling to areas with high elevation. FIRST AID TREATMENT If you have any of these symptoms at altitude, assume that it is altitude sickness until proven otherwise. Do not ascend any further with symptoms.
