Tutorial

This directory contains Jupyter tutorial notebooks aligned with the case-study subsections. All notebooks use the Archer Midnight as the reference vehicle.

Directory Contents

  • README.md: This document
  • Archer_Midnight.json: Reference Archer Midnight aircraft configuration file used by the tutorial notebooks
  • 01_Getting-started: Introductory notebooks for inspecting the eVTOLpy aircraft object and loading aircraft configurations from JSON files
  • 02_Aircraft-Config: Notebooks for aircraft geometry parameters, derived quantities, fixed mass inputs, and custom configuration settings
  • 03_Mission-Profiles: Notebooks for defining primary and reserve mission segments and modifying mission timeline parameters
  • 04_Mass-and-Weight-Analysis: Notebooks for component-level mass breakdown and iterative MTOW convergence analysis
  • 05_Power-and-Energy-Analysis: Notebooks for segment power, electric power, power-chain losses, and mission energy consumption
  • 06_Aerodynamics: Notebooks for component drag buildup and aerodynamic contribution analysis
  • 07_Propulsion: Notebooks for rotor disk loading, solidity, EPU mass, battery energy density, and usable battery energy
  • 08_Archer-Midnight-Sizing: Notebooks for the final Archer Midnight sizing case, convergence dashboard, and range/altitude design-space study
  • 09_Miscellaneous: Additional scripted examples and utility demonstrations
