Thruster.GetThrust() Method

Top 

Description

Returns the effective thrust based on the propulsion model thrust polynomial evaluation. The thrust polynomial coefficients are specified by the Thruster.ThrusterC1-ThrusterC16 properties. The Thruster Scale Factor and Duty Cycle are included in the calculation.
