RCAIDE Package Setup

Modules

compute_chord_length_from_span_location(...)

Computes the chord length given a location along the half-span.

compute_fuel_volume(vehicle[, ...])

Computes the total fuel volume and mass for all fuel tanks in a vehicle.

compute_segment_centroid(le_sweep, seg_span, ...)

Computes the centroid of a trapezoidal segment

compute_segment_meshes(x_in, y_in, x_out, ...)

compute_segment_volume(wing, inner_segment, ...)

Estimate the prism volume between two consecutive wing segments using their airfoil cross-sectional areas and local span.

compute_span_location_from_chord_length(...)

Computes the location along the half-span given a chord length.

convert_sweep(wing[, ...])

This method converts the sweep of a wing planform to refer to a new chord fraction.

fuselage_planform(fuselage[, ...])

Calculates fuselage geometry values

populate_control_sections(wing)

This function takes the control surfaces defined on a wing and appends them to wing segments Conditional statements are used to determine where the control surface bounds are in relation to the wing segments.

wing_planform(wing)

Computes standard wing planform values.
