% Compute stress on turbine blades.
Blade stress with linear taper. Type BladeStress for a demo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
sigma = BladeStress( u, rH, rT, rhoM, aTOAH )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Input:
------
u (1,:) Velocity (m/s)
rH (1,1) Hub radius (m)
rT (1,1) Tip radius (m)
rhoM (1,1) Material density (kg/m^3)
aTOAH (1,1) Area ratio tip to hub
-------
Output:
-------
sigma (1,:) Stress (MPa)
