- evaluate_slipstream(rotor, rotor_conditions, geometry, ctrl_pts, wing_instance=None)[source]#
Evaluates the velocities induced by the rotor on a specified wing of the vehicle. If no wing instance is specified, uses main wing or last available wing in geometry.
Assumptions: None
Source: N/A
- Inputs:
self - rotor wake rotor - rotor geometry - vehicle geometry
- Outputs:
wake_V_ind - induced velocity from rotor wake at (VD.XC, VD.YC, VD.ZC)
Properties Used: None
