Aerothermodynamics of Gas Turbine Rocket Propulsion, Third Edition
Publisher: AIAA | ISBN: 1563472414 | edition 1997 | PDF | 459 pages | 6,8 mb
This seminal book on gas turbine
technology has been a best-seller since it was first published in 1984.
It now includes a comprehensive set of software programs that complement
the text with problems and design analyses. Software topics included
are: atmosphere programs, quasi-one-dimensional flows programs (ideal
constant-area heat interaction, adiabatic constant-area flow with
friction, rocket nozzle performance, normal shock waves, oblique shock waves), gas turbine programs (engine cycle analysis and engine off-design performance),
and rocket combustion programs (Tc and Pc given, Hc and Pc given,
isentropic expansion). Used as a standard text in more than 50
universities, the book and software will continue to fulfill the need
for a comprehensive modern book on the principles of propulsion.
