pyBEMT
======

Introduction
------------

pyBEMT is an implementation of the Blade Element Momentum Theory in Python.
The model can be used to estimate the thrust generated by a propeller or 
the power generated by a turbine.

Notable features:

- A small and unified implementation for both propellers and turbines
- A model for coaxial rotors
- Optimization of rotor parameters

Installation
------------

To install the package, first ensure that the following required libraries are installed:

- numpy
- scipy
- matplotlib
- pandas
- sphinx (for documentation)

These can be installed using the provided ``requirements.txt``,

.. code-block:: console

        pip install -r requirements.txt

Next, the package can be installed using pythontools:

.. code-block:: console

        python setup.py install

Alternatively, just add the pybemt directory to the PYTHONPATH.

Documentation
-------------

Examples on how to use the package are given in the examples directory.
Documentation is hosted on https://pybemt.readthedocs.io/
