Recensione

'I found the book eminently readable, I 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

Descrizione del libro

Through two engine design projects, first for a new large passenger aircraft and second for a new fighter aircraft, this text introduces, illustrates and explains the important facets of modern engine aerothermal design. Principles and ideas are emphasised and many examples and exercises reinforce the text.
