An air data computer (ADC) or central air data computer (CADC) uses inputs of pressure and temperature to calculate altitude, vertical speed, air speed, and Mach number.
It is a crucial avionics element included in contemporary aeroplanes. The calibrated airspeed, Mach number, altitude, and altitude trend data from an aircraft’s pitot-static system can be obtained by this computer rather than by individual instruments.
Equivalent airspeed is determined rather than measured airspeed in some extremely fast aircraft, such the Space Shuttle.
Temperature of the ambient air is typically another input for air data computers. This makes it possible to calculate the true airspeed and static air temperature.
The Global Air Data Computer Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Aeroprobe Launches New Micro Air Data Computer Model.Two further Micro Air Data Computers (ADCs) have been added to the product lineup by Aeroprobe Corporation.
The Pegasus and Destiny models maintain the accuracy and practical size of the company’s current versions while introducing new, streamlined features.
In a variety of applications and sectors, air flow data is collected and processed using ADCs. ADCs provide a full system for the gathering and processing of air flow data when used in conjunction with an air data probe, such as those from Aeroprobe’s extensive product line.
These goods are generally utilised for avionics in the unmanned systems sector to gather real-time air data for improved flying performance and stability. Other sectors use this system’s mobility to make measurements in far-off places or on moving platforms.
For instance, the wind turbine business can use real-time evaluation of wind parameters to modify the pitch of the turbine blades to increase power output.
Real-time wind data can be used by trucks and other motor vehicles to optimise aerodynamic performance.
One of the new models is equipped with an Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS), which offers attitude data such as roll, pitch, and yaw.
An RTD input for low-noise air temperature measurement and a quick detach pneumatic connector for a quicker and easier setup process are further new features.
All models include field programmable firmware, external GPS synchronisation, and data logging or streaming capabilities in a small, light, and low-power package that is comparable in size and weight to a cellphone.
These measurements are in addition to the standard airspeed, angle of attack, angle of sideslip, and barometric altitude measurements.
