The following list contains improvements to the Aerospace Blockset product since the previous release:
6DoF blocks now output translational accelerations.
Out of Range actions (None, Warning, Error) are now available for WGS84 Gravity Model block and the COESA Atmosphere Model block.
Where applicable, you can now select to output velocity for blocks in knots.
As a result of conversion from the previous version, the output and behavior of some of the blocks have changed. These differences are listed below.
Dryden Wind Turbulence Block. If DCM equals eye(3) (identity matrix) and wind direction equals 0° (from North), the output of the Dryden Wind Turbulence Model (Continuous +q -r) block yields the same results as past versions of the Dryden Wind Turbulence Model (Aerospace Blockset Software Version 1.0 and 1.0.1) with approximately 10-7 error.
Also, for the Dryden Wind Turbulence Model (Continuous) block, the military specifications result in the same transfer function after evaluating the turbulence scale lengths, and the turbulence transfer functions balance each other out.
Wind Shear Block. When using metric units, values will differ from the previous version of the Aerospace Blockset product at the second decimal place (0.0x) due to corrections in the metric altitude to measure wind speed. It has been changed from six meters to ~6.096 meters. The specification calls for 20 feet and the new metric altitude is the exact conversion.
COESA Atmosphere Block. When using English units, density units have changed from lbm/ft3 to slugs/ft3. Blocks will be forwarded, with automatic conversion, to continue to output density in lbm/ft3. Users may wish to investigate updating their models to use slugs/ft3.
Turbofan Engine System Block. Users might experience minor changes in output values due to unit conversion correction for relative ratios.
