The C-5 SAM
TM
measures air
temperature, relative humidity, wind
speed and direction, and barometric
pressure every second.
The resulting data is used to
automatically compute the stability
class of the wind and 5-minute
running averages of wind speed,
direction, and temperature. Every
30 seconds this data is transmitted
to the Receiver/Display box and
then output to your computer…
automatically updating the plume
dispersion modeling software.
