TemperatureStagnation:

Path: AerospaceUtils/AtmosphericCalculations

% Compute the stagnation temperature in the earth's atmosphere.
 The the altitude is greater than 80 km it uses values at 80 km.

 Type TemperatureStagnation for a demo.

   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   v              (1,:) Velocity (m/s)
   h              (1,:) Altitude (m)
   r              (1,1) Recovery factor (0.88 turbulent (default) 0.85 laminar)  

   -------
   Outputs
   -------
   t0             (1,1) Stagnation temperature (K)
