- DSAeroToolsSim.Models.Lift.simpleLift.simpleLift(Vehicle, *args)
Simple Lift Model
Appends ‘lift’ to Vehicle.State.Aero.lift.
It also returns ‘lift’ for convenience. See segments for example.
- ### Note: simpleLift requires the following variables to have already been appended to the state:
Vehicle.State.Trajectory.V
Vehicle.State.Aero.CL
Vehicle.State.Atmosphere.rho
- Parameters:
Vehicle (Vehicle) – Vehicle from which the lift is being called for. Automatically passed when a call to the Wrapper is made.
- Returns:
Lift force for the given velocity and lift coefficient
- Return type:
float
