Description
This PR fixes a model error introduced with the previous update to the solarArrayReference module. The error consisted in assuming that the power-generating surface of the arrays was reflective. The surface is, in fact, mostly absorbent, and this changes the guidance model.
The momentum management mode of the module is changed according to a new guidance law that reflects a more accurate model. The first commit contains changes to the module code, the second and third commit reflect the updates to the unit test and the documentation, respectively.
Verification
The unit test is updated to reflect the changes in the model.
Documentation
The documentation is updated to reflect the changes in the model.
Future work
Reference to the journal paper is going to be added to the documentation once this is published.
