Detailed Description

Magnetic torquer model.

Models a pulsewidth modulated suite of thrusters with a single blowdown tank.

A pulsewidth command is sent to the thrusters. The thrusters then fire until the pulsewidth is complete.

A blowdown system is assumed using Helium as the pressurant. The pressure is modeled assuming a single tank. Thrusters are added using a AddThruster setup directive.

rhs()

void magnetic_torquer::rhs	(	double	t,
		double	jd
	)

Computation done during numerical integration.

The right hand side applies the force and torque to the parent object and computes the mass derivative using the mass flow.
