def append_fan_conditions(fan,segment,energy_conditions):
"""
Initializes and appends fan conditions to the energy conditions dictionary.
Parameters
----------
fan : Fan
The fan component for which conditions are being initialized.
segment : Segment
The mission segment in which the fan is operating.
energy_conditions : dict
Dictionary containing conditions for all propulsion components.
Returns
-------
None
This function modifies the energy_conditions dictionary in-place.
Notes
-----
This function creates empty Conditions objects for the fan's inputs and outputs
within the energy_conditions dictionary. These conditions will be populated during
the mission analysis process.
