This example shows how to finite difference a single component.

class openmdao.examples.fd_comp_example.Model

Bases: openmdao.core.group.Group

Simple model to experiment with finite difference.

class openmdao.examples.fd_comp_example.SimpleComp

Bases: openmdao.core.component.Component

A simple component that provides derivatives.

linearize(params, unknowns, resids)

Analytical derivatives.

solve_nonlinear(params, unknowns, resids)

Doesn’t do much. Just multiply by 3
