## What is this?



This is a library for aerodynamic, metrology and physics calculations. Same calculations as used in ADC and other aircraft computers. This also can be used in flight simulations.



Whole library was made with idea to make calculations incredibly precise (calculation error 0.1% at worst case - especially calc_dew_point() function) and fast as possible (for less CPU time usage).



Most of used equations/methods are well known. Some are made by me to achieve better accuracy (less error) - especially with calculation of denisty altitude (true altitude).



## Important things



- Altitude calculations are limited to troposphere (up to 11 000 m MSL or 36 089 feet MSL) for less CPU time usage. Those functions will give error above troposphere, which will be increased with every feet.



- This library can be used in aircrafts (including UAVs), but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY. You are responsible to made software tests and ground tests, before first flight. Additional tests (confirmations) in-flight are also recommended.



## Bugs reporting and questions



If You found any bug, or You just think something here can be done better, then please inform me immediately by sending email to adress which is in source code.



Bug report(s) can possibly prevent somebody crash, which hopefully will never happen.



Questions are welcome too.

## Test.sh



This script will compile test.c, which will perform some tests. Those tests will use ALL of this library functions. This can be used to cross-check calculations.
