Formulas for temperature in the atmosphere
The decrease in air temperature with altitude also depends on the moisture content of the air. Depending on the moisture content, the temperature decreases between 0.4 and 0.98 Kelvin per 100m. On average, the air cools by 6.5 Kelvin per kilometer up to a height of 11 kilometers. At an altitude of 11 to 20 kilometers, the temperature remains almost the same at just over minus 55 degrees. From an altitude of 20 to 47 kilometers, the temperature warms up again due to the absorption of UV radiation by the ozone to near zero degrees.
Temperature in the atmosphere
The formulas for calculating the average air temperature apply up to an altitude of 11000 m.
\(\displaystyle Temperature\;[°C]=Altitude\;[km]· 6.5+15\)
\(\displaystyle t=h· 6.5+15\)
