Description

TheDynamic Pressureblock computes dynamic pressure.

Dynamic pressure is defined as:

$\bar{q} = \frac{1}{2} ρ V^{2},$

whereis air density andVis velocity.

Model Examples

1903 Wright Flyer and Pilot with Scopes for Data Visualization

How to model the Wright Brothers' 1903 Flyer modeled in Simulink®, and Aerospace Blockset™ software. This model simulates the longitudinal motion of the Flyer in response to the pitch commands of a simulated pilot.

Open Model

Fly the De Havilland Beaver

How to model the De Havilland Beaver using Simulink® and Aerospace Blockset™ software. It also shows how to use a pilot's joystick to fly the De Havilland Beaver. This model has been color-coded to aid in locating Aerospace Blockset blocks. The red blocks are Aerospace Blockset blocks, the orange blocks are subsystems containing additional Aerospace Blockset blocks, and the white blocks are Simulink blocks.
