ONE_PRESSURE_TEMP

A climatology that supports a single pressure and temperature. This is useful for cross-section calculations that need an atmospheric state and the user wants to avoid the overhead and complication of realistic climatologies. In this climatology the user explicitly sets the temperature and pressure. The class supports pressure (pascals), temperature (kelvin) and number density per cm3:

mjd = 52393.3792987115;
climate = ISKClimatology(‘ONE_PRESSURE_TEMP’)
climate.UpdateCache( [0,0,0,mjd])

Supported Species

• SKCLIMATOLOGY_AIRNUMBERDENSITY_CM3

Python extension

The ONE_PRESSURE_TEMP climatology is in the sasktran_core extension which is part of the default sasktran installation.

Configuration

The ONE_PRESSURE_TEMP requires no external configuration.

Properties

ONE_PRESSURE_TEMP.SetTemperature(double T)

Sets the temperature of the climatology to the value passed in. This value is in Kelvins.

ONE_PRESSURE_TEMP.SetPressure(double P)

Sets the pressure of the climatology to the value passed in. The value is in Pascals.
