Throttle enforcing settings

[mizu0fire0]

how can i enforce the throttle to specific ranges during specific segments of the flight ? is there a pre-existing example in the aviary documentation, something like :
mission.segment('climb').set_val('throttle', 0.95)
mission.segment('cruise').set_val('throttle', 0.85)
mission.segment('descent').set_val('throttle', 0.3)

In the height-energy method, throttle is an implicit output computed by a solver by varying engine thrust to match the required thrust at each point in the mission. You can set it indirectly by adding a constraint. We don't have a documentation example, but we do have this test:

Aviary/aviary/interface/test/test_height_energy_mission.py

Dynamic.Vehicle.Propulsion.THROTTLE: {

For your examples, you would want to remove "upper" and "lower" from the dict, and add "equals" and give that the value you want (0.95 in phase, etc.) That way, the optimizer should drive towards a solution that satisfies your throttle constraints.
