The text is divided into four parts: basic concepts and gas dynamics; analysis of rocket propulsion systems; parametric (design point) and performance (off-design) analysis of air breathing propulsion systems; and analysis and design of major gas turbine engine components (fans, compressors, turbines, inlets, nozzles, main burners, and afterburners).

Design concepts are introduced early (aircraft and rocket performance in an introductory chapter) and integrated throughout. Written with extensive student input on the design of the book, the book builds upon definitions and gradually develops the thermodynamics, gas dynamics, rocket engine analysis, and gas turbine engine principles. The book contains over 100 worked examples and numerous homework problems so concepts are applied after they are introduced. Over 600 illustrations and pictures show basic concepts, trends, and design examples.

Eight computer programs accompany the text, which allow for rapid calculation of trends, “what if” questions, conceptual design, homework problems, and homework verification. The software runs in the Windows operating system on PC-compatible systems.]]> 558868 4.00 3 2 2006 1251393 0930403231 9780930403232 0 <![CDATA[Aircraft Engine Design]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1251393.Aircraft_Engine_Design 0.0 0 The book is completely self-contained, including the equivalent of an instructors' manual, as each successive step of the design process is carried out in complete detail for the same aircraft system. The key steps of the design process are covered in 10 chapters that include aircraft constraint analysis, aircraft mission analysis, engine parametric (on-design) analysis, engine performance (off-design) analysis, engine sizing, burners, turbines, afterburners, and nozzles.

Includes Software! The ONX (parametric) and OFFX (performance) programs greatly extend the methods of Gordon Oates in facilitating the analysis of many airbreathing engine cycles. Furnished on one 3.5-inch DSDD floppy disk, these programs are supplied in executable code and come with a user's guide on the disk.
