AircraftBasicFixedWingPropulsion#

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.aviator.AircraftBasicFixedWingPropulsion#: Class defining the basic fixed wing propulsion options for a basic acceleration performance model of an Aviator aircraft.

Overview#

Methods

Set the option to use density scaling and set the density ratio exponent.

Properties

`propulsion_mode`	Get or set the option of whether to specify net thrust or net power.
`propeller_count`	Get or set the number of propellers.
`propeller_diameter`	Get or set the propeller diameter.
`propeller_rpm`	Get or set the propeller RPM.
`min_power_thrust`	Get or set the minimum power/thrust depending on the propulsion mode.
`min_fuel_flow`	Get or set the fuel flow for the minimum thrust/power setting.
`max_power_thrust`	Get or set the maximum power/thrust depending on the propulsion mode.
`max_fuel_flow`	Get or set the fuel flow for the maximum thrust/power setting.
`max_thrust_acceleration`	Get or set the rate at which the aircraft speeds up at max throttle.
`min_thrust_deceleration`	Get or set the rate at which the aircraft slows down at minimum throttle setting.
`use_density_scaling`	Opt whether to scale the accel/decel performance by the density ratio.
`density_ratio_exponent`	Get the relative impace of atmospheric density on the aircraft’s performance.
