OpenAP Polynomial Model for Emission Research

Super fast Polynomial Model for Flight Emission Research

This is the simplest aircraft emission model that gives you fuel and co2 estimations based on the aircraft type, distance, and takeoff mass.

This reduced-order aircraft emission model is based on OpenAP.

Quick example

from openap import polymer

flight = polymer.Flight("A320")

flight.fuel(distance=2000, mass=65000)  # in km and kg
flight.co2(distance=2000, mass=65000)

# or even simpler
flight.fuel(distance=2000)
flight.co2(distance=2000)

Visualize the actual model

from openap import polymer

flight = polymer.Flight("A320")

flight.plot()

Install

openap.polymer uses openap.top for generating flights with varying flight distances to construct a simplified fuel and emission calculation model.

1. Create a new conda environment (openap-env), which avoids messing up the base conda environment:

conda create -n openap-env python=3.10 -c conda-forge

2. Use the openap-env environment

conda activate openap-env

3. Install dependent libraries:

The most recent version of openap and openap-top:

pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/junzis/openap
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/junzis/openap-top

4. Install openap.polymer

pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/junzis/openap-polymer
