Module: thrMomentumManagement
=============================

Executive Summary
-----------------

This module reads in the Reaction Wheel (RW) speeds, determines the net RW momentum, and then determines the amount of angular momentum that must be dumped.

A separate thruster firing logic module called thrMomentumDumping will later on compute the thruster on cycling. The module
:download:`PDF Description </../../src/fswAlgorithms/attControl/thrMomentumManagement/_Documentation/Basilisk-thrMomentumManagement-20160817.pdf>`
contains further information on this module's function, how to run it, as well as testing.
