%% Inputs
Q = 0.16; %[m^3/s] flowraten
r_2 = 0.25; %[m]Ydre radius
D_2 = 0.50 %[m]Ydre diameter
b_2 = 0.5 %[m]Blad højden
beta_2 = 75 %[grader] vinklen
U_2 = (r_2 * omega) * 2*pi * 1/60
%Head
H_plot = zeros(50,1);
for Q = 1:1:50;
H = (U_2^2*Q/g - U_2/(pi*D_2*b_2*g*tand(beta_2))); % [m] Beregning af head
H_plot(i)= H;
i = i+1;
end
why do i get this error message: Array indices must be positive integers or logical values

"why do i get this error message: Array indices must be positive integers or logical values"
Because you do not define i, and so it defaults to the imaginary unit (which is not a valid index).
Note that it is usually much clearer to loop over an index variable rather than looping over data (e.g. Q). Note that you define Q twice in your code, which is unlikely to be intentional.
Most likely you can replace that loop with vectorized code:

%Define Omega and g
omega=
g=
Remaining code (Loop can be avoided here)
U_2=(r_2 * omega) * 2*pi * 1/60
Q = 1:1:50;
H = (U_2^2*Q./g - U_2/(pi*D_2*b_2*g*tand(beta_2)));
plot(H,Q);
