Constructor Detail

MassEquation

public MassEquation(String partName,
                    MassProperty property)

Create a new mass equation, for a given part. The name of the created equation is set by default in the following form : "MASS_".

Parameters:

partName - name of part subject to this equation

property - mass property

Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Get the name of the additional equation. The name is in the following form : "MASS_".

Specified by:

getName in interface AdditionalEquations

Returns:

name of the additional equation with the prefix "MASS_"

computeDerivatives

public void computeDerivatives(SpacecraftState s,
                               TimeDerivativesEquations adder)
                        throws OrekitException

Compute the derivatives related to the additional state parameters.

Specified by:

computeDerivatives in interface AdditionalEquations

Parameters:

s - current state information: date, kinematics, attitude, additional states

adder - object where the contribution of the additional parameters to the orbit evolution (accelerations) should be added

Throws:

OrekitException - if some specific error occurs

setMassDerivativeZero

public void setMassDerivativeZero()

Set the flow rate to zero.

Since:

2.3.1

addMassDerivative

public void addMassDerivative(double flow)

Set the flow rate.

Parameters:

flow - rate

genName

public static String genName(String name)
