fastga.models.aerodynamics.components.ht.compute_cl_beta_ht module

class fastga.models.aerodynamics.components.ht.compute_cl_beta_ht.ComputeClBetaHorizontalTail(**kwargs)

Bases: fastga.models.aerodynamics.components.figure_digitization.FigureDigitization

Class to compute the contribution of the horizontal tail to the roll moment coefficient due to sideslip. Depends on the lift coefficient, hence on the reference angle of attack, so the same remark as in ..compute_cy_yaw_rate.py holds. The convention from [Ros85b] are used, meaning that for lateral derivative, the reference length is the wing span.

Based on [Ros85b] section 10.2.4.1.

Store some bound methods so we can detect runtime overrides.

initialize()

Perform any one-time initialization run at instantiation.

setup()

Declare inputs and outputs.

Available attributes:

name pathname comm options

compute(inputs, outputs, discrete_inputs=None, discrete_outputs=None)

Compute outputs given inputs. The model is assumed to be in an unscaled state.

Parameters

• inputs (Vector) – Unscaled, dimensional input variables read via inputs[key].

• outputs (Vector) – Unscaled, dimensional output variables read via outputs[key].

• discrete_inputs (dict or None) – If not None, dict containing discrete input values.

• discrete_outputs (dict or None) – If not None, dict containing discrete output values.
