Description

https://github.com/mdolab/OpenAeroStruct/blob/master/openaerostruct/examples/drag_polar.py

This needs a few improvements:

  • Add comments and API notes throughout
  • Add labels to plots and clean up formatting
  • Create a test to cover this file; could compare matplotlib output or at least numerical values
  • Add doc to show how to use this
