Balanced Field Length using OpenMDAO’s Function Wrapping Components.#

Things you’ll learn through this example

  • How to build an ODE that uses existing functions rather than rewriting the dynamics as OpenMDAO components.

This example performs the same balanced field length optimization as the example found here. The purpose of this example is to demonstrate the ability of OpenMDAO to wrap existing user-defined functions that was introduced with OpenMDAO 3.14.0.

Why use the function wrapping capability?#

In many cases, users are likely to have existing code that performs their calculations. Rather than forcing them to rewrite this code in the form of OpenMDAO components, the function wrapping components make it easier to get models up and running in OpenMDAO.

Also, doing so gives users another option for differentiating their models by providing a format that can be used by Google’s jax package, which is a python-based automatic differentiation (AD) tool that provides another option, in addition to complex-step, for providing derivatives across the user’s model.

In our case, we have two functions to wrap: the runway ODE and the climb ODE.

Runway ODE function#

def runway_ode(rho, S, CD0, CL0, CL_max, alpha_max, h_w, AR, e, span, T, mu_r, m, v, h, alpha):
    g = 9.80665
    W = m * g
    v_stall = np.sqrt(2 * W / rho / S / CL_max)
    v_over_v_stall = v / v_stall

    CL = CL0 + (alpha / alpha_max) * (CL_max - CL0)
    K_nom = 1.0 / (np.pi * AR * e)
    b = span / 2.0
    fact = ((h + h_w) / b) ** 1.5
    K = K_nom * 33 * fact / (1.0 + 33 * fact)

    q = 0.5 * rho * v ** 2
    L = q * S * CL
    D = q * S * (CD0 + K * CL ** 2)

    # Compute the downward force on the landing gear
    calpha = np.cos(alpha)
    salpha = np.sin(alpha)

    # Runway normal force
    F_r = m * g - L * calpha - T * salpha

    # Compute the dynamics
    v_dot = (T * calpha - D - F_r * mu_r) / m
    r_dot = v

    return CL, q, L, D, K, F_r, v_dot, r_dot, W, v_stall, v_over_v_stall

Climb ODE function#

def climb_ode(rho, S, CD0, CL0, CL_max, alpha_max, h_w, AR, e, span, T, m, v, h, alpha, gam):
    g = 9.80665
    W = m * g
    v_stall = np.sqrt(2 * W / rho / S / CL_max)
    v_over_v_stall = v / v_stall

    CL = CL0 + (alpha / alpha_max) * (CL_max - CL0)
    K_nom = 1.0 / (np.pi * AR * e)
    b = span / 2.0
    fact = ((h + h_w) / b) ** 1.5
    K = K_nom * 33 * fact / (1.0 + 33 * fact)

    q = 0.5 * rho * v ** 2
    L = q * S * CL
    D = q * S * (CD0 + K * CL ** 2)

    # Compute the downward force on the landing gear
    calpha = np.cos(alpha)
    salpha = np.sin(alpha)

    # Runway normal force
    F_r = m * g - L * calpha - T * salpha

    # Compute the dynamics
    cgam = np.cos(gam)
    sgam = np.sin(gam)
    v_dot = (T * calpha - D) / m - g * sgam
    gam_dot = (T * salpha + L) / (m * v) - (g / v) * cgam
    h_dot = v * sgam
    r_dot = v * cgam

    return CL, q, L, D, K, F_r, v_dot, r_dot, W, v_stall, v_over_v_stall, gam_dot, h_dot

The Function Wrapping Component#

The following component wraps one of the above ODE functions depending on its ‘mode’. This allows us to declare a single ODE component for use in the problem regardless of whether the given phase models the ground roll or the climb.
