Inhaltsangabe

The second edition of Cumpsty's excellent self-contained introduction to aerodynamic and thermodynamic design of modern civil and military jet engines. Throughly updated and revised, including a new appendix on noise control and expanded treatment of emissions. Suitable for student courses in aircraft propulsion, and an invaluable reference for aerospace engineers.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'I found the book eminently readable, will find it very helpful and will advocate it to students ... and colleagues. One can think of many other engineering topics that would benefit from books having the lucid style and up-to-the-minute credibility of this well-priced one.' Ray Whitford, Institute of Mechanical Engineering

'As an introductory guide to design, and an indication of why modern engines are 'how they are', this book deserves to be used wherever aircraft propulsion is taught. Like a good jet engine, it has the potential for future development and updating in new versions and should enjoy a long and useful life.' Frank Armstrong, The Aeronautical Journal
