Summary

Compute the Equivalent Radiated Power (ERP)

available inputs: fields_container (FieldsContainer), mesh (MeshedRegion, MeshesContainer), time_scoping (Int32, IList int, Scoping, System.Collections.IEnumerable), mass_density (double), speed_of_sound (double), erp_type (Int32), boolean (bool), factor (double)

available outputs: fields_container (FieldsContainer)

Example

op = equivalent_radiated_power()

op = equivalent_radiated_power(fields_container=my_fields_container,mesh=my_mesh,time_scoping=my_time_scoping,mass_density=my_mass_density,speed_of_sound=my_speed_of_sound,erp_type=my_erp_type,boolean=my_boolean,factor=my_factor)

Assembly Ans_Dpf_FEMutils_dll_cs
Base Class Ans.DataProcessing.internal_objects.BaseOperator

Inputs

fields_container

the input field container expects displacements fields

Type: LinkableInput

mesh

the mesh region in this pin has to be boundary or skin mesh

Type: LinkableInput

time_scoping

load step number (if it's specified, the ERP is computed only on the substeps of this step) or time scoping

Type: LinkableInput

mass_density

mass density (if it's not specified, default value of the air is applied).

Type: LinkableInput

speed_of_sound

speed of sound (if it's not specified, default value of the speed of sound in the air is applied).

Type: LinkableInput

erp_type

if this pin is set to 0, the classical ERP is computed, 1 the corrected ERP is computed (a mesh of one face has to be given in the pin 1) and 2 the enhanced ERP is computed. Default is 0.

Type: LinkableInput

boolean

if this pin is set to true, the ERP level in dB is computed

Type: LinkableInput

factor

erp reference value. Default is 1E-12

Type: LinkableInput

Outputs

fields_container

Type: LinkableOutput
