-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mixed flow turbofan engine performance. A mixed flow turbofan is one in which the fan and core streams mix in the same nozzle. This model supports afterburning. The outputs are the same as RamjetH2. Only mks units are supported in this function. Type MixedFlowTurbofan for a demo. This function employs a reference model and its outputs are deviations from the reference model. Type ref = MixedFlowTurbofan to get the reference data structure along with the demo. Note that only ref.h0 need be entered for the atmospheric parameters. The following are computed from the Standard Atmosphere and AtmGamma as follows. q = StdAtm( ref.h0 ); ref.p0 = q.pressure; ref.a0 = q.speedOfSound; ref.t0 = q.temperature; ref.rho = q.density; ref.gammaC = AtmGamma( ref.t0 ); Since version 5. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: [t, tSFC, f, M, thR] = MixedFlowTurbofan( action, varargin ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ action (1,:) 'initialize' 'update' if action == struct t (.)
