Summary of Calibration Factors
| Pre-RAINEX | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Variable | Variable Name | C1 | C2 | C3 |
| Total temperature, radome right | TTRR | -10.3920 | 5.2187 | -0.0216 |
| Raw dynamic pressure, radome | QCR | 69.3058 | 6.8939 | -0.0010 |
| Radome differential pressure, vertical | ADIFR* | varies | varies | varies |
| Radome differential pressure, lateral | BDIFR | 0.1862 | 5.2070 | -0.0014 |
| Total temperature, radome left | TTRL | -10.8510 | 5.2337 | -0.0084 |
| Raw dynamic pressure, fuselage | QCF | 86.1612 | 8.6304 | 0.0004 |
| Raw static pressure, fuselage | PSF | 541.2814 | 54.2173 | -0.0090 |
| Dew point temperature, fuselage | DPT | 0.2056 | 9.9696 | -0.0071 |
| * ADIFR was affected by unstable pressure transducer. Variable was adjusted flight-by-flight to bring AKRD in concordance with PITCH, which also resulted in zero mean vertical winds. | ||||
