Super fast Polynomial Model for Flight Emission Research
This is the simplest aircraft emission model that gives you fuel and co2 estimations based on the aircraft type, distance, and takeoff mass.
This reduced-order aircraft emission model is based on OpenAP.
Quick example
from openap import polymer
flight = polymer.Flight("A320")
flight.fuel(distance=2000, mass=65000) # in km and kg
flight.co2(distance=2000, mass=65000)
# or even simpler
flight.fuel(distance=2000)
flight.co2(distance=2000)
Visualize the actual model
from openap import polymer
flight = polymer.Flight("A320")
flight.plot()
Install
openap.polymer
uses openap.top
for generating flights with varying flight distances to construct a simplified fuel and emission calculation model.
- Create a new conda environment (
openap-env
), which avoids messing up the base conda environment:
conda create -n openap-env python=3.10 -c conda-forge
- Use the
openap-env
environment
conda activate openap-env
- Install dependent libraries:
The most recent version of openap
and openap-top
:
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/junzis/openap
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/junzis/openap-top
- Install
openap.polymer
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/junzis/openap-polymer
