Pressure Altitude Formula
The following formula is used to convert in of mercury into altitude feet.
h(alt) = ( 1 – ( P / 1013.25) ^ .190284) * 145366.45
- Where h(alt) is the altitude pressure (ft)
- P is the measure pressure
Pressure Altitude Definition
Pressure altitude is defined as the relationship between the atmospheric pressure and the distance above the surface of the earth.
Pressure Altitude Example
How to calculate altitude pressure
- First, measure the station pressure.
This station pressure will normally be measured in mm or in of mercury.
- Next, convert to pressure.
Convert the pressure from mm or in of mercury to millibars.
- Calculate the altitude pressure.
Using the pressure from step 2, calculate the pressure altitude using the formula above.
