CreateVCDisturbanceFile:

Path: SCPro/ProTools

% Create a VisualCommander disturbance file from a cad model.

   Each line is

   componentID v1 v2 v3 {cDF alphaF epsF rhoSF rhoDF rhoAF}...
   rhoT {repeat back}

   The repeat is for 2 sided faces. Each face is a triangle.

   alpha   thermal absorptivity
   eps     thermal emissivity
   cD      drag coefficient
   rhoS    specular optical coefficient
   rhoD    diffuse optical coefficient
   rhoA    absorption optical coefficient
   rhoT    transmissivity (the same for the back)
   id      the component

   F means front, B back. The fron normal is found by going v1->v2->v3

   Type

   CreateVCDisturbanceFile

   to create a cube spacecraft.
