fastga_he.models.propulsion.sub_components.heat_sink.components.sizing_heat_sink_tube_mass_flow module

class fastga_he.models.propulsion.sub_components.heat_sink.components.sizing_heat_sink_tube_mass_flow.SizingHeatSinkTubeMassFlow(**kwargs)[source]

Bases: ExplicitComponent

Computation of the maximum mass flow that will be required in the heat sink tube, should be a result of the performance group but as the thermal management will not be detailed for now, it is going to be computed here based on the maximum heat to dissipate. Method from [Gir14]

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

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.

compute_partials(inputs, partials, discrete_inputs=None)[source]

Compute sub-jacobian parts. The model is assumed to be in an unscaled state.

Parameters:

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

  • partials (Jacobian) – Sub-jac components written to partials[output_name, input_name]..

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