power()

def SUAVE.Components.Energy.Distributors.HTS_DC_Supply.HTS_DC_Supply.power	(		self,
			current,
			power_out
	)

The power that must be supplied to the DC supply to power the HTS coils.

    Assumptions:
    Supply cable is solid copper, i.e. not a rotating joint.
    Power supply has static efficiency across current output range.
    Power supply performance is not affected by altitude or other environmental factors. This is not generally true (Ametek SGe datasheet should be derated by 10% per 1000 feet) for current supplies designed for ground use however a supply specifically designed for airborne use can be expected to have a more appropriate cooling design that would allow high altitude use.

    Source:

    Inputs:
    current             [A]
    power_out           [W]
    self.efficiency

    Outputs:
    power_in            [W]
