Hi, I just observed something I don't know if it's a bug or a feature:
Parking any JSBSim aircraft at KSFO and simulating global warming by setting the air-temperature to 45degC and dewpoint to 40degC and observing the properties /environment/density-slugft3 and /fdm/jsbsim/atmosphere/rho-slugs_ft3 one can see that there is a significant difference in the two densities of air. It looks like density-slugft3 is calculated correct as 0.00209 resulting in a higher density altitude and the rho-slugs_ft3 is still 0.002377 as the value for standard atmosphere. Since the rho-slugs_ft3 is used in the aerodynamic (qbar) and engine performance section hot and high conditions seem to be without any effect for JSBSim aircraft. Is this correct or do I get something wrong? Torsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
