JetEngineEfficiency:

Path: ACPro/ACEngine

% Computes the jet engine efficiency for an engine.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   [etaO, etaT, etaP] = JetEngineEfficiency( f, hPR, v0, fOverMDotA, v9, units, v19, alpha )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   f          (1,1)   Fuel/air ratio
   hPR        (1,1)   Fuel heating value
   v0         (1,:)   Velocity
   fOverMDotA (1,:)   Specific thrust
   v9         (1,:)   Exit velocity
   units      (1,:)   'eng' or 'mks'
   v19        (1,:)   Exit velocity second exhaust
   alpha      (1,1)   Bypass ratio

   -------
   Outputs
   -------
   etaO       (1,:)   Total efficiency
   etaT       (1,:)   Thermal efficiency
   etaP       (1,:)   Propulsive efficiency
