Class JB2008

java.lang.Object

org.orekit.forces.drag.atmosphere.JB2008

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Atmosphere

public class JB2008
extends Object
implements Atmosphere

This is the realization of the Jacchia-Bowman 2008 atmospheric model.

It is described in the paper:
A New Empirical Thermospheric Density Model JB2008 Using New Solar Indices
Bruce R. Bowman & al.
AIAA 2008-6438

Two computation methods are proposed to the user:

• one OREKIT independent and compliant with initial FORTRAN routine entry values: getDensity(double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double, double).
• one compliant with OREKIT Atmosphere interface, necessary to the drag force model computation.

This model provides dense output for all altitudes and positions. Output data are :

• Exospheric Temperature above Input Position (deg K)
• Temperature at Input Position (deg K)
• Total Mass-Density at Input Position (kg/m³)

The model needs geographical and time information to compute general values, but also needs space weather data : mean and daily solar flux, retrieved through different indices, and planetary geomagnetic indices.
More information on these indices can be found on the official JB2008 website.
