MATLAB: Iterations while in loop

elseforifloop

having trouble making this iterate for each increment of Vn, it goes straight to Vn = 30, i want it to also to calc a new Re, f, dPloss_1, Va & Q with each new iteration.
D = 0.1; L = 10; 
A = 0.25*pi*D^2; 
e = 0.0015e-3; 
rho = 998; 
nu = 1.01e-6;  
eoverD = e/D;
alpha = 0.1;
Vo = 2;
    for Vn = 2:0.1:30;% iteration length. 
    %


    Re = (Vo.*D) / nu;
    % 
    if Re < 2300
    f = 64 / Re;
    else
       darbyFormula = @(x) 1/sqrt(x)+2*log10(eoverD/3.7 + 2.51/Re/sqrt(x));
    f = fzero(darbyFormula,0.01);
    end
    %
    dPloss_1 = (f*rho*(L/D)) * ((Vn*Vo)./2);
    Va = (alpha*Vn)+((1-alpha)*Vo); 
    Q=Va*A;
    Vo = Va;
    end %

No, of course it iterates through 2:0.1:30. You can test this easily either by using the debugger or by a disp(Vn) command inside the loop.
The problem might be, that the result is overwritten in each iteration. So try:
Vn_pool = 2:0.1:30;
Q = zeros(1, length(Vn_pool)));  % pre-allocate!!!
for k = 1:length(Vn_pool)
  Vn = Vn_pool(k);
  ...
  Q(k) = Va * A;  % same for the other values wanted as outputs
end
