AS2012 High TAT at altitude

[drnex 1]

I'm running AS2012 SP1 DWC, all sliders on default since installation. Currently I'm at 34,000 and the TAT is +15F. This seems way too high at FL340. Any ideas?

I have read that this issue has been resolved. See Revisions.rtf that came with SP1.Obviously it has not. Over the North Sea from EHAM and EDDF to the west coast of the U.S. I have encounted at FL300 an instant shift in TAT from -8C to +47C numerious times. Fixed? I don't think so?

 

Where are you flying and what plane are you using?

Hello, 15 F is equal to about -9 C which I believe is quite normal for TAT at FL340 with compression heating. unless you are indeed saying it was 15 C

This problem was fixed with the latest version of AS2012, however having said that there still is a problem that I have encountered. The TAT is fine on my system at various flight levels once I get there. My issue is why does it go down so slow. I took off from KJFK with a TAT of +19 and it slowly reduced to 0 passing FL30 the temperature gradient goes down much faster in the real world.

 

My question to Damian is how can you speed up the TAT reduction speed during climb, btw this does affect fuel burn rate on the LDS 767 and I would imagine other aircraft.

 

Other than this issue the program works like a charm.

Has anyone put a ticket in about this?

I had this same issue. I would fly in FSX in the same areas that I fly realworld and notice hi temps and slow temp decrease. I submitted a ticket and was told that there should'nt be a problem because of where the network recieves the data. Since then i have moved over to opus and no longer use active sky.

Its more of an FSX issue than a weather engine deal. I read that from the Opus forum. Refreshing weather generally resolves it.:

 

"The TAT problem is an internal FSX problem which plagues everyone now and again, in the next phase of development starting this week we will be doing all we can to erradicate the TAT problem, but you cannot set the TAT it is set by FSX using the ambient temperature."
