% Computes atmospheric density based on the standard atmosphere model.
To get a table of standard atmosphere data type
load -ascii AtmData;
Type StdAtm for demo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
d = StdAtm( altitude, AtmData, units )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
altitude (:) Altitude (m or ft)
AtmData (:,6) Standard atmosphere data.
units (1,:) 'si', 'mks' or 'eng' i.e. m & kg or lb & ft
-------
Outputs
-------
d (.) Standard atmosphere struct
.temperature
.pressure
.density
.speedOfSound
.kinematicViscosity
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
x is [altitude (m) temperature (deg-K) pressure (N/m^2) density (kg/m^3)
speed of sound (m/s) kinematic viscosity (m^2/s)]
or
[altitude (ft) temperature (deg-R) pressure (lbf/ft^2)
density (lbf/m^3) speed of sound (ft/s)
kinematic viscosity (ft^2/s)]
