class fastga_he.models.propulsion.components.connectors.dc_dc_converter.components.lcc_dc_dc_converter_cost.LCCDCDCConverterCost(**kwargs)[source]

Bases: ExplicitComponent

Computation of convertor purchase cost based on a 3-level Buck-Boost architecture from [MIB+24]. This is estimated based on two IGBTs per switch, a 20% cost contribution of the IGBTs to the total cost based on [BK13]. The IGBT suggested pricing (115 USD) is given by https://www.mouser.fr/ProductDetail/Infineon-Technologies/FZ600R12KP4?qs=lxTgnyf4o0eNz5ooVj7tEA%3D%3D.

Store some bound methods so we can detect runtime overrides.

initialize()[source]

Perform any one-time initialization run at instantiation.

setup()[source]

Declare inputs and outputs.

Available attributes:

name pathname comm options

setup_partials()[source]

Declare partials.

This is meant to be overridden by component classes. All partials should be declared here since this is called after all size/shape information is known for all variables.

compute(inputs, outputs, discrete_inputs=None, discrete_outputs=None)[source]

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

An inherited component may choose to either override this function or to define a compute_primal function.

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

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

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

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