Design mass breakdown #384

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Xpath of the element CPACS:
"/analysis/massBreakdown/..."
"/analysis/weightAndBalance/..."

Current situation: 
In the mass breakdown the design masses are specified aligned with an 
additional breakdown for payload and fuel. Currently, these values are similar 
to the design values, i.e. the sum of empty mass, payload and fuel is close to 
mTOM. However, it is necessary to specify the max. payload and max. fuel to 
enable a meaningful analysis within the weight and balance part of CPACS. 

Proposal:
Payload and fuel mass in the massBreakdown should contain max. values for the 
aircraft. Hence, weightAndBalance analysis is enabled. In addition, the 
designMasses node of the massBreakdown should contain further (rough) 
information on the design payload and design fuel. This information needs to be 
consistent with the other specified design masses.
