eradiate.thermoprops.us76.velocity_term_no_hump(z, q1, u1, w1)[source]#

Computes the transport term given by equation (37) in [NASA et al., 1976] where the second term is zero.

Parameters:

  • z (float or array-like) – Altitude [km].

  • q1 (float) – Value of the Q constant [km^-3].

  • u1 (float) – Value of the U constant [km].

  • w1 (floa) – Value of the W constant [km^-3].

Returns:

float or array-like – Values of the transport term [km^-1].

Notes

Valid in the altitude region \(86 <= z <= 150\) km.
