Resum

Description (English)

Raytraced image showing the concepts of inclination (i), longitude of the ascending node (Ω), argument of the periapsis (ω), and true anomaly (ν) for a "minor" object in an elliptic orbit around a larger object.

Legend

Letters in the image denote:

  • A – Minor, orbiting body
  • B – Major body being orbited by A
  • C – Reference plane, e.g. the ecliptic
  • D – Orbital plane of A
  • E – Ascending node
  • F – Descending node
  • G – Periapsis
  • H – Apoapsis
  • i – Inclination
  • J – Reference direction; for orbits in or near the ecliptic, usually the vernal point
  • Ω – Longitude of the ascending node
  • ω – Argument of the periapsis
  • ν – True anomaly

The red line is the line of apsides; going through the periapsis (G) and apoapsis (H); this line coincides wíth the major axis in the elliptical shape of the orbit

The green line is the node line; going through the ascending (E) and descending node (F); this is where the reference plane (C) intersects the orbital plane (D).

Raytracing

This image was created using the Persistence of Vision Raytracer and the scene description code below: You can use this free raytracing package and the scene description below to re-render the image in new resolutions, or modify the description and thus the image being rendered.

A few notes of caution for those who want to do their own renditions of this image:

  • The "camera" (viewpoint) assumes that the image format is square (i.e. has the same number of pixels in width and height) - to achieve this, use the +w and +h command line options to set the same number of pixels in width and height, respectively.
  • This image comes complete with the letter annotations, and for this, the POV-Ray installation needs access to the TrueType fonts timesbi.ttf (Times new roman, bold and italic) and symbol.ttf (for greek letters). These come as standard on a Microsoft Windows installation, so this image should at least be able to render in POV-Ray for Windows.
  • A little "dirty trick" is used to put those annotations there; they are text objects placed right in front of the "camera" that "sees" the scenario. Because of this, if you modify the camera location and/or look_at-point in the code, you need to either delete the annotations or make sure they "move with" the camera.

Multiple images in one scene description

Rendering the POV-Ray scene description as shown below renders this image, showing all four angles of the orbital elements: the two remaining orbital elements not shown here are semimajor axis and eccentricity. Using this scene description, you can generate various views (isometric, normal to reference plane, normal to orbit plane) and display various features of the Keplerian orbit. You can also set the background color and whether to display the Cartesian coordinate axes.

The view variable declaration reads:

#declare view=0;

view = 0 sets the camera to an isometric view

view = 1 sets the camera to a view normal to the reference plane

view = 2 sets the camera to a view normal to the orbit plane


The backgroundColor variable declaration reads:

#declare backgroundColor = 0;

backgroundColor = 0 sets the background color as white

backgroundColor = 1 sets the background color as black


The featureCode variable declaration reads:

#declare featureCode = 0;

featureCode = 0 displays all four Keplerian orbit angles (seen here)

featureCode = 1 displays the argument of the periapsis only (see Image:Argument of Periapsis in Elliptical Orbit.png)

featureCode = 2 displays the longitude of the ascending node only (see Image:Longitude of Ascending Node in Elliptical Orbit.png)

featureCode = 3 displays the orbit inclination only (see Image:Inclination in Elliptical Orbit.png)

featureCode = 4 displays the true anomaly only (ADD IMAGE HERE)

Beskrivelse (Dansk)

Raytracet billede der demonstrerer inklination, den opstigende knudes længde og periapsisargumentet for et mindre himmellegeme i elliptisk kredsløb om et større.

Nøgle

Bogstaverne i billedet angiver:

  • A – Det mindre himmellegeme
  • B – Det større himmellegeme
  • C – Referenceplan, f.eks. da:ekliptika
  • D – Baneplan for A's omløb
  • E – Nedadgående knude
  • F – Periapsis
  • G – Opstigende knude
  • H – Apoapsis
  • i – Inklination
  • J – Referenceretning; for baner i eller nær ekliptikas plan typisk forårspunktet i Vædderen
  • Ω – Opstigende knudes længde
  • ω – Periapsisargument

Raytracing

Billedet er lavet med raytracin-programmet Persistence of Vision Raytracer, samt den scenarie-beskrivelse der er vist nedenfor. Du kan bruge dette gratis raytracing-program og beskrivelsen nedenfor til at renderer billedet i nye opløsninger, eller lave ændringer i beskrivelsen og dermed også i det endelige billede.

Et par detaljer man skal være opmærksom på hvis man vil rendere billedet:

  • "Kameraet" (betragtningspunktet) i billedet går ud fra at det færdige billede får et kvadratisk format, dvs. har lige mange pixels i bredden og højden. Man bør derfor bruge kommandolinje-ordrerne +w og +h til at specificere det samme antal pixels i respektive bredden og højden.
  • Billedet leveres "komplet", inklusiv bogstav-annotationerne. For at lave disse, Persistence of Vision-programmet have adgang til Truetype-skrifttyperne timesbi.ttf (Times New Roman i fed og kursiv) og symbol.ttf (for græske bogstaver). Disse er standard i en Microsoft Windows-installation, så denne scenarie-beskrivelse skulle kunne køre fejlfrit med Persistence of Vision Raytracer for Windows.
  • Der er brugt et lille "sidegade-kneb" til at lave bogstav-annotationerne; de er text-objekter anbragt lige foran camera'et, så hvis man flytter på synsretningen mod motivet, skal man enten sørge for at annotationerne "flytter med" synsretningen, eller helt fjerne dem.

Fire billeder ud af én beskrivelse

Hvis man renderer scenariebeskrivelsen som den er vist nedenfor, får man dette billede der viser alle de tre parametre for en omløbsbane der er vinkler. Nogen synes at der er lidt for meget overvældende detaljemylder i billedet, så jeg ændrede beskrivelsen så den kan bruges til ikke blot hosstående billede, men også tre andre tilsvarende billeder, der blot kun beskriver én af vinklerne "ad gangen".

I linje 10 i beskrivelsen står der:

#declare View=0;

Som beskrevet i de kommentarer der starter fra linje 11, giver 0'et i ovenstående linje det kombinerede billeder der viser alle tre vinkler. Erstatter man 0'et med enten 1, 2 eller 3, får man billeder der viser én vinkel:

  1. for periapsisargumentet (se Image:Argument of Periapsis in Elliptical Orbit.png)
  2. for den opstigende knudes længde (se Image:Longitude of Ascending Node in Elliptical Orbit.png)
  3. for banehældning (se Image:Inclination in Elliptical Orbit.png)

ClassicalOrbitalElements.pov

Description:
    This scene shows the six classical orbital elements, namely:
    1) semimajor axis, a (implicit)
    2) eccentricity, e (implicit)
    3) orbit inclinaton, i
    4) argument of the ascending node, Omega
    5) argument of periapsis, omega
    6) true anomaly, nu

Updated by:

    https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Aero_BSC
    2023/11/23

Updates:
    1. Added true anomaly, nu
    2. Added arrow preferences: ability for angles greater
       than 180 deg and options for arrow head visibility
    3. Added view selection (isometric, normal to reference plane,
       or normal to orbital plane)
    4. Added background color selection (black or white)
    5. Added axes (cartesian triad) display option   
    6. Set the 6 classical orbital elements as variables, which
       can be modified by the user
        
TO DO:
    -- Make ascending and descending nodes move when argument of 
       periapsis, omega_, changed
    -- Make yellow part of angle measurement thing stay in place when
       argument of periapsis, omega_, changed
    -- Fix aspect ratio of output image, see:  
       http://povray.tashcorp.net/tutorials/qd_aspect_ratio/
       https://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/153/
    -- Mathematically determine vector normal to orbit plane, to 
       generalize the computation of the camera angle for the view 
       normal to the orbit plane (view 2)
