Appendix I: Density Tables
Density of Air
At the temperature t in [°C] and the pressure p in [mbar] or [hPa] the density
ρ
of
air in [g/cm
3
] is calculated using the following formula for an air humidity of 50 %:
ρ
=(((0.34844*p-0.5*(0.252*t-2.0582))/(273.15+t)/1000))
The numbers are valid for a CO
2
content in air of 0.03 % by volume; the numbers
change by ±1/19000 for every change in CO
2
volume content of ±0.0001.
Density of Air (-10 °C to +90 °C)

Composition of dry air in [v/v]: 78.110 % N

; 20.938 % O

; 0.916 % Ar;
0.033 % CO

; 0.002 % Ne
