I am trying to edit the AERODYNAMICS section of the aircraft
configuration file and am having a problem... again!
This is the initial section, that worked:
<AERODYNAMICS>
<AXIS NAME="LIFT">
<COEFFICIENT NAME="CLalpha" TYPE="VECTOR">
Lift_due_to_alpha
4
aero/alpha-rad
aero/qbar-psf|metrics/Sw-sqft
-0.20 -0.750
0.00 0.250
0.23 1.400
0.60 0.710
</COEFFICIENT>
This is the one I have created:
<AERODYNAMICS>
<AXIS NAME="LIFT">
<COEFFICIENT NAME="CLalpha" TYPE="VECTOR">
Lift_due_to_alpha
18
aero/alpha-rad
aero/qbar-psf|metrics/Sw-sqft
-0.052 -0.350
-0.035 -0.194
-0.017 -0.109
0.00 0.017
0.017 0.169
0.035 0.314
0.052 0.423
0.070 0.568
0.087 0.67
0.105 0.809
0.122 0.882
0.157 0.95
0.192 0.97
0.227 0.99
0.262 0.96
0.297 0.89
0.332 0.79
0.367 0.680
</COEFFICIENT>
When I launch the simulator, the loading freezes while loading the
aero data, just after completing the control loads. Is there too much
data for it to handle?
Where are the variables
1. aero/alpha-rad
2. aero/qbar-psf|metrics/Sw-sqft
defined? Do they need to be changed to accept more values?
Thanks a lot!
Sam
