TAS2CAS

Conversion of true to indicator airspeed.

tas cas

Description

The TAS2CAS block converts true airspeed (true airspeed, ) to indicator airspeed (calibrated airspeed, ) using the formula:

where

  • m/s is the speed of sound at sea level;

  • с Pa - atmospheric pressure;

  • - adiabatic index for air;

  • - speed of sound;

  • - static pressure.

The TAS2CAS unit works in SI units.
