This text on gas turbine technology has been a bestseller since it was first published in 1984. This revised edition now includes a comprehensive set of software programmes that complement the text with problems and design analyses. Software topics included are: atmosphere programmes, quasi1D flows programmes (ideal constantarea heat interaction, adiabatic constantarea flow with friction, rocket nozzle performance, normal shock waves, oblique shock waves), gas turbine programmes (engine cycle analysis and engine offdesign performance), and rocket combustion (tc and pc are given, hc and pc are given, Isentropic expansion). Used as a standard text in more than 50 universities, the book and software continue to fulfil the need for a comprehensive, modern book on the principles of propulsion. System requirements: IBM PC 386/486/586/Pentium or clone; 640 Kb RAM hard disk with 1.0Mb of available disk space; EGA or better video capability.
