complicated system of 3 equations,3 unknowns

1 view (last 30 days)
I'm trying to solve a big system of 3 equations 3 unknowns, but i keep getting 0 for all three variables which i'm certain is wrong. I was wondering if im doing something wrong.alph1 alph2 alph3 are my equations and A1 A3 A5 are unknown. Please help me
syms A1 A3 A5 b cr ct
clc
AR=8;
lamda=0.4;
an=2*pi;
zerolift=deg2rad(-1.5);
angleofa=deg2rad(7.6);
teta=[pi/6,pi/3,pi/2];
lamda=0.4;
ct=lamda*cr;
eqn=(b^2)/((cr+ct)*(b/2))==AR;
b=solve(eqn,b);
y1=(-b/2)*cos(teta(1));
y2=(-b/2)*cos(teta(2));
y3=(-b/2)*cos(teta(3));
c1=-cr*((3*3^(1/2))/10 - 1);
c2=cr*(1+(1-lamda)*((2*y2)/b));
c3=cr*(1+(1-lamda)*((2*y3)/b));
n=1
alph1=((2*b)/(pi*c1))*((A1*sin(teta(n)))+(A3*sin(3*teta(n)))+(A5*sin(5*teta(n))))+zerolift+((1*A1*(sin(1*teta(n))/sin(teta(n))))+(3*A3*(sin(3*teta(n))/sin(teta(n))))+(5*A5*(sin(5*teta(n))/sin(teta(n)))));
n=2
alph2=((2*b)/(pi*c2))*((A1*sin(teta(n)))+(A3*sin(3*teta(n)))+(A5*sin(5*teta(n))))+zerolift+((1*A1*(sin(1*teta(n))/sin(teta(n))))+(3*A3*(sin(3*teta(n))/sin(teta(n))))+(5*A5*(sin(5*teta(n))/sin(teta(n)))));
n=3
alph3=((2*b)/(pi*c3))*((A1*sin(teta(n)))+(A3*sin(3*teta(n)))+(A5*sin(5*teta(n))))+zerolift+((1*A1*(sin(1*teta(n))/sin(teta(n))))+(3*A3*(sin(3*teta(n))/sin(teta(n))))+(5*A5*(sin(5*teta(n))/sin(teta(n)))));
eqn1=alph1==zerolift;
eqn2=alph2==zerolift;
eqn3=alph3==zerolift;
sol=solve([eqn1,eqn2,eqn3],[A1,A3,A5]);
A1=sol.A1;
A3=sol.A3;
A5=sol.A5;

You have included 'zerolift' in the alpha equations, but in the 'eqn' equations you have also set the expressions to 'zerolift' which cancels it out. Hence, all zeros would be the solution. You should be consistent. Either include it in the alpha's or include it in the equ's, but not both.
