fswSetupThrusters

fswSetupThrusters.create(rThrust_B, tHatThrust_B, Fmax)[source]

This function is called to setup a FSW RW device in python, and adds it to the of RW devices in rwList[]. This list is accessible from the parent python script that imported this rw library script, and thus any particular value can be over-ridden by the user.

Parameters:
  • rThrust_B – position of thruster in spacecraft body frame

  • tHatThrust_B – direction of thrust vector in B frame

  • Fmax – maximum thrust force value

fswSetupThrusters.writeConfigMessage()[source]

This function should be called after all devices are created with create() It creates the C-class container for the array of RW devices, and attaches this container to the spacecraft object :return:
