TSTODemo:
TSTO takeoff demo.
The TSTO stack starts on the runway in takeoff mode. When it is
moving at the takeoff speed it climbs. It transitions from turbojet
to ramjet and climbs to the separation altitude and velocity.
The simulation works with flight path and heading angles. You can
try flying the vehicle in a variety of trajectories.
The vehicle parameters are documented in the paper:
Paluszek, M. and J. Mueller, Space Rapid Transit - A Two Stage to Orbit
Fully Reusable Launch Vehicle, IAC-14,C4,6.2, Toronto, Ontario Canada,
October 2014.
The parameters are for a small two stage to orbit vehicle.
The Orbiter starts at the termination condition. The script
computes a transfer orbit and the necessary velocity changes to get
the Orbiter into an ISS altitude orbit. The Orbiter trajectory is
not simulated.
