atm_pressure: Barometric formula (Atm. Pressure)

In ratral/hyd4gpv: General Purpose Valve functions

Description

The barometric formula, sometimes called the exponential atmosphere or isothermal atmosphere, is a formula used to model how the pressure or density of the air changes with altitude. The pressure drops approximately by 11.3 Pa per meter in first 1000 meters above sea level. 1 Kilopascals (kPa) = 0.01 bar See more about the Barometric formula at the barometric-formula
