RCAIDE.Library.Methods.Powertrain.Propulsors.Turbojet.append_turbojet_conditions
append_turbojet_conditions#
- append_turbojet_conditions(propulsor, segment, energy_conditions, noise_conditions)[source]#
Initializes turbojet operating conditions for a mission segment.
- Parameters:
propulsor (RCAIDE.Library.Components.Propulsors.Turbojet) –
- Turbojet propulsor component with the following attributes:
- tagstr
Identifier for the turbojet
- itemsdict
Dictionary of subcomponents
segment (RCAIDE.Framework.Mission.Segments.Segment) –
- Mission segment with the following attributes:
- stateData
- Segment state
- ones_rowfunction
Function to create array of ones with specified length
energy_conditions (RCAIDE.Framework.Mission.Common.Conditions) – Energy conditions container where turbojet conditions will be stored
noise_conditions (RCAIDE.Framework.Mission.Common.Conditions) – Noise conditions container where turbojet noise conditions will be stored
- Return type:
None
Notes
This function initializes the necessary data structures for storing turbojet operating conditions during a mission segment. It creates zero-filled arrays for various performance parameters and recursively calls the append_operating_conditions method for each subcomponent of the turbojet.
The function initializes the following parameters: throttle, commanded_thrust_vector_angle, thrust, power, moment, fuel_flow_rate, inputs and outputs containers
It also creates a core_nozzle container in the noise conditions.
- Major Assumptions
All arrays are initialized with zeros
Each component has an append_operating_conditions method
