Mattingly J.D. Elements of Gas Turbine Propulsion

McGraw-Hill, 2013. — 1025 p. — (McGraw-Hill Series in Aeronautical and Aerospace Engineering). — ISBN: 0079121969, 9780079121967.Scan.This text provides an introduction to the fundamentals of gas turbine engines and jet propulsion for aerospace or mechanical engineers. The book contains sufficient material for two sequential courses i propulsion (advanced fluid dynamics) an introductory course in jet propulsion and a gas turbine engine components course. The text is divided into four parts introduction to aircraft propulsion; basic concepts and one-dimensional/gas dynamics; analysis and performance of air breathing propulsion systems; and analysis and design of gas turbine engine components.
