TrueAirspeed

Description

Returns the true airspeed

Usage

TrueAirspeed(MACH, AT, EoverP = 0)

Arguments

MACH

A numeric vector representing the Mach number, possibly from MachNumber()

AT

A numeric vector representing the air temperature in deg.C

EoverP

An optional numeric vector representing the ratio of water vapor pressure to total pressure

Details

Calculates the true airspeed from measurements of Mach number, air temperature, and optionally humidity

Value

A numeric vector giving the true airspeed in m/s
