Here are some equations for calculating the pressure at a specific height:

If I read correctly, you are converting height to pressure, then to rotation.
Maybe it would be easier to convert back to height first, then you can
convert to

Hi,
I'm an Italian student at the University of Udine.
I'm developing a freeware VRML, JAVA and Javascrpit flight simulator of the MB339-PAN
but I have e great problem with the instruments (the one's that use the pressure)
that's: I've created the altimeter but when I connect it to the program

I haven't an interpolation of the formula that calculate the pressure.
