Method Detail

getCrossSection

public double getCrossSection(SpacecraftState state,
                              Vector3D flux,
                              Frame partFrame)
                       throws PatriusException

Compute the cross section of main shape using the relative velocity in the part (having the aero property) frame as the direction to provider to the CrossSectionProvider.getCrossSection(Vector3D).

Parameters:

state - the current state of the spacecraft

flux - the incoming flux in the state frame

partFrame - frame of part owning the property

Returns:

the cross section of the main shape.

Throws:

PatriusException - if some frame specific error occurs

getType

public PropertyType getType()

Get the type of the property.

Specified by:

getType in interface IPartProperty

Returns:

the type of the property (see PropertyType enumeration)
