Atmosphere and Air Data Measurement topics include: Atmosphere characteristics, air vertical development, standard atmospheric model, air data and height measurement, airflow characteristics and airspeed measurements, air data computers, mach number and air temperature measurements. Here are some common methods and parameters used to measure and analyze air: Temperature: A thermometer can be used to measure temperature, such as a mercury-in-glass thermometer or a digital thermometer. Pressure: A barometer can be used to measure atmospheric pressure. There are three basic types of... Show more
