def append_turboshaft_conditions(turboshaft, segment, energy_conditions, noise_conditions):
"""
Appends data structures for storing turboshaft operating conditions during mission analysis.
Parameters
----------
turboshaft : RCAIDE.Components.Energy.Converters.Turboshaft
The turboshaft component for which conditions are being appended
segment : RCAIDE.Analyses.Mission.Segments
The mission segment being evaluated
energy_conditions : RCAIDE.Framework.Mission.Common.Conditions
Container for energy-related conditions during the mission segment
noise_conditions : RCAIDE.Framework.Mission.Common.Conditions
Container for noise-related conditions during the mission segment
Returns
-------
None
This function modifies the energy_conditions and noise_conditions objects in-place
Notes
-----
This function initializes the condition structure for a turboshaft engine with zero values
for throttle, thrust vector angle, power, and fuel flow rate. It then recursively calls
the append_operating_conditions method for all subcomponents of the turboshaft.
The function creates a hierarchical data structure that mirrors the component hierarchy
of the turboshaft engine, allowing for detailed tracking of operating conditions at each
level during mission analysis.
**Major Assumptions**
* The segment state contains a ones_row method for creating arrays
* All subcomponents have properly implemented append_operating_conditions methods
