class Exponential(self: ostk.physics.environment.atmospheric.earth.Exponential)

Bases: pybind11_object

Exponential atmospheric model.

Methods

get_density_at

Get the atmospheric density value at a given position and instant.

is_defined

Check if the exponential atmospheric model is defined.

get_density_at(
self: ostk.physics.environment.atmospheric.earth.Exponential,
lla: ostk.physics.coordinate.spherical.LLA,
instant: ostk.physics.time.Instant,
) ostk.core.type.Real

Get the atmospheric density value at a given position and instant.

Parameters:
  • lla (LLA) -- A position, expressed as latitude, longitude, altitude [deg, deg, m].

  • instant (Instant) -- An Instant.

Returns:

Atmospheric density value.

Return type:

float

is_defined(
self: ostk.physics.environment.atmospheric.earth.Exponential,
) bool
