Creates an aero component of type CAERO1.

Parameters:

  • start_id (int) – The ID from which the component and element numbering will start.

  • n_span (int) – The number of spanwise boxes to create.

  • n_chord (int) – The number of chordwise boxes to create.

  • coordinates (hwString) – The location of the four corner points. This must be 12 values enclosed in double quotes.

  • mode (int) –

    Flag for create or update of component:

    0 - Create

    1 - Update

  • table_id_1 (int) – The ID of the AEFACT table containing the 1D array of custom element sizes along the span direction.

  • table_id_2 (int) – The ID of the AEFACT table containing the 1D array of custom biasing sizes along the span direction.

  • createproperty (int) – Reserved for future development

  • propname (hwString) – Reserved for future development

Example#

Create a body component with ID 677771, system with ID 508, and considering the length along the y-axis of the coordinate system#
import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()
