Flight Parameters

Analyze vehicle flight dynamics and motion in MATLAB^® using aerospace flight parameters

Estimate aerodynamic flight parameters, such as airspeed, incidence and sideslip angles, Mach number, and relative pressure, density, and temperature ratios.

Functions

`airspeed`	Airspeed from velocity
`alphabeta`	Compute incidence and sideslip angles
`correctairspeed`	Convert airspeeds between equivalent airspeed (EAS), calibrated airspeed (CAS), or true airspeed (TAS)
`dpressure`	Compute dynamic pressure using velocity and density
`machnumber`	Compute Mach number using velocity and speed of sound
`rrdelta`	Compute relative pressure ratio
`rrsigma`	Compute relative density ratio
`rrtheta`	Compute relative temperature ratio

Featured Examples
