◆ shevell()

def SUAVE.Methods.Noise.Fidelity_Zero.shevell.shevell (   weight_landing,
  number_of_engines,
  thrust_sea_level,
  thrust_landing 
) 
This uses correlations from Shevell, also used in AA241A/B, to calculate the sources for noise

Assumptions:
None

Inputs:
    weight_landing     [newtons]
    number_of_engines  [int]
    thrust_sea_level   [newtons]
    thrust_landing     [newtons]

Outputs:
