Differential acceleration drag - DEPRECATED
[acc_diff] = CL_cw_diffDrag(altitude, cbal1, cbal2 [, er, mu])
This function is deprecated.
Computes the differential acceleration of a chaser relative to a target due to atmospheric drag.
The atmospheric density model used is an exponential model.
Target altitude [m] (1xN)
Target ballistic coefficient S*cx/m S=equivalent drag surface, cx = drag coefficient, m = mass. [m^2/kg] (1xN)
Chaser ballistic coefficient S*cx/m S=equivalent drag surface, cx = drag coefficient, m = mass. [m^2/kg] (1xN)
(optional) Equatorial radius. Default: %CL_eqRad. [m] (1x1)
(optional) Gravitational constant. Default: %CL_mu. [m^3/s^2] (1x1)
Differential acceleration (chaser relative to target). [m/s^2] (1xN)
