Creating a Function based on Time
Show older comments
As the title suggests I'm trying to create a function of time that computes lift and drag coefficients for the first 5 seconds and then what they are after 5 seconds. I don't have too much MatLab experience so I'm probably not doing this right. Can someone please help?
function[CL, CD, CP] = LiftandDrag(t, CLi, CDi)
t = 1:100;
CDi = 0.01; %Initial canopy Drag Coefficient
CLi = 0.0; %Initial canopy Lift Coefficient
if t < 5
CL = .2*t+CLi;
CD = 0.038*t+CDi; %drag coeffcient of chute
CP = 2; %drag of payload
elseif t > 5
CL = 1; %Inflated canopy Lift Coefficient
CD = .2; %Inflated canopy Drag Coefficient
CP = 2; %Payload Drag Coefficient
end
