Section I
METEOROLOGICAL TERMINOLOGY
Indicated
Pressure
Altitude
The number actually read from an altimeter
when the barometric subscale has been
set to 29.92 inches of mercury (1013.2 mil-
libars).
ISA
International Standard Atmosphere
in
which:
(1) The air is a dry, perfect gas;
(2) The temperature at sea level is 15° Cel-
sius (59° Fahrenheit);
(3) The pressure at sea level is 29.92
inches of mercury (1013.2 millibars);
(4) The temperature gradient from sea
level to the altitude at which the tempera-
ture is -56.5°C (-69.7°F) is -0.00198°C (-
0.003566°F) per foot and zero above that
altitude.
OAT
Outside Air Temperature
is the free air
static temperature, obtained either from the
temperature indicator (IOAT) adjusted for
compressibility effects, or from ground
meteorological sources.
Pressure
Altitude
Altitude measured from standard sea-level
pressure (29.92 in. Hg/1013.2 millibars) by
a pressure (barometric) altimeter. It is the
indicated pressure altitude corrected for
position and instrument error. In this hand-
book, altimeter instrument errors are
assumed to be zero. Position errors may
be obtained from the Altimeter Correction
graphs.
