% Computes the fuel as a function of range. Type FuelFromRange for a demo using the Scimitar engine at Mach 5. Since version 5. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: mF = FuelFromRange( mD, lOverD, r, v, sFC ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ mD (1,1) Dry mass (kg) lOverD (1,1) Lift to drag ratio r (1,:) Range (km) v (1,1) Velocity (m/s) sFC (1,1) Specific Fuel Consumption (kg/N-s) ------- Outputs ------- range (1,:) Range (km) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reference: http://web.mit.edu/16.unified/www/FALL/ thermodynamics/notes/node98.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------
