Class IsotropicRadiationClassicalConvention

java.lang.Object

org.orekit.forces.radiation.IsotropicRadiationClassicalConvention

All Implemented Interfaces:

RadiationSensitive

public class IsotropicRadiationClassicalConvention
extends Object
implements RadiationSensitive

This class represents the features of a simplified spacecraft.

This model uses the classical thermo-optical coefficients Ca for absorption, Cs for specular reflection and Kd for diffuse reflection. The equation Ca + Cs + Cd = 1 always holds.

A less standard set of coefficients α = Ca for absorption and τ = Cs/(1-Ca) for specular reflection is implemented in the sister class IsotropicRadiationCNES95Convention.
