% Lift coefficient for subsonic, supersonic and hypersonic flight. This combines subsonic, supersonic and hypersonic. All regimes have a Mach number correction. If alpha is not entered it will compute just the lift curve coefficient. Type CLComposite for a demo. Since version 2014.1. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: cL = CLComposite( m, d, alpha, gamma ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ m (1,:) Freestream Mach number d (.) Data structure .cLM1 (1,1) Lift ratio at Mach 1 .cLAlpha (1,1) Lift curve slope (1/rad) .sweep (1,1) Sweep angle (rad) .thicknessRatio (1,1) Thickness to chord ratio alpha (1,:) Angle of attack (rad) gamma (1,1) Ratio of specific heats (Default = 1.4) ------- Outputs ------- cL (1,:) Lift coefficient -------------------------------------------------------------------------- See also CPHypersonic --------------------------------------------------------------------------
