Climb computation can lead to unrealisticly high altitude #508

Closed florentLutz closed 5 months ago

florentLutz commented 9 months ago

Describe the bug In the case were the inputs are not fully coherent (mainly the static thrust of turbofan), the climb phase computation can lead to altitude that are higher than what the rubber engine can handle for the k_sfc computation leading to an Error and the stop of the process. This happends when the aircraft can't climb to its altitude which makes him burn a lot of fuel which makes him unrealistcly light leading to cruise altitude above 20000m.

To Reproduce Running an OAD process with the following files will reproduce the error Issue_FAST.zip

Zip content is not available (GitHub removed it at some point?). Hopefully, fix in version 1.17.2 fixed that. Closing for now.
