📖 API Reference

This section provides a complete reference for every public module, class, and function in OpenAP.

Conventions

• Speed: knots (kt) for airspeed inputs in performance models
• Altitude: feet (ft) for altitude inputs in performance models
• Vertical rate: feet per minute (ft/min)
• Mass: kilograms (kg)
• Force (thrust/drag): Newtons (N)
• Fuel flow: kg/s
• Emissions: g/s
• Aero/Geo modules: SI units (meters, m/s, Pa, K, degrees)

All performance classes (Thrust, Drag, FuelFlow, Emission) accept an optional backend parameter to switch between NumPy (default), CasADi, or JAX computation. See Backends for details.
