Modeling and simulation of Air Data Computer

Abstract

Air Data Computer (ADC) is an electronics device computes air data flight parameters. The objective of this paper is to analyze, simulate, and propose hardware implementation module for the Air Data Computer. Simulation of ADC model has been faced by two problems. The first one was to choose true values of dynamic temperature because it depends on flight altitude and airspeed. The second problem is that Mach number equation for Mach greater than one is implicit equation. This work propose modified model to avoid the first problem, and using numerical methods to solve the implicitly of Mach number equation. The proposed model has been implemented on microcomputer base system.
