What is Fundamentals of Aircraft and Rocket Propulsion about?

This book provides a comprehensive basics-to-advanced course in an aero-thermal science vital to the design of engines for either type of craft. The text classifies engines powering aircraft and single/multi-stage rockets, and derives performance parameters for both from basic aerodynamics and thermodynamics laws. Each type of engine is analyzed for optimum performance goals, and mission-appropriate engines selection is explained. __Fundamentals of Aircraft and Rocket Propulsion__ provides information about and analyses of: * thermodynamic cycles of shaft engines (piston, turboprop, turboshaft and propfan); * jet engines (pulsejet, pulse detonation engine, ramjet, scramjet, turbojet and turbofan); * chemical and non-chemical rocket engines; * conceptual design of modular rocket engines (combustor, nozzle and turbopumps); and * conceptual design of different modules of aero-engines in their design and off-design state. Aimed at graduate and final-year undergraduate students, this textbook provides a thorough grounding in the history and classification of both aircraft and rocket engines, important design features of all the engines detailed, and particular consideration of special a
