% 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 );
