Now in its third edition, Jet Propulsion offers a self-contained introduction to the aerodynamic and thermodynamic design of modern civil and military jet engine design. Through two-engine design projects for a large passenger and a new fighter aircraft, the text explains modern engine design. Individual sections cover aircraft requirements, aerodynamics, principles of gas turbines and jet engines, elementary compressible fluid mechanics, bypass ratio selection, scaling and dimensional analysis, turbine and compressor design and characteristics, design optimization, and off-design performance. The civil aircraft, which formed the core of Part I in the previous editions, has now been in service for several years as the Airbus A380. Attention in the aircraft industry has now shifted to two-engine aircraft with a greater emphasis on reduction of fuel burn, so the model created for Part I in this edition is the new efficient aircraft, a twin aimed at high efficiency.
Acerca del autor: Nicholas Cumpsty is a Professor Emeritus at Imperial College London. He conducted his postgraduate research at the University of Cambridge, where he was awarded a PhD for a dissertation entitled 'The Calculation of Three-Dimensional Turbulent Boundary Layers'. He has been a Professor of Aerothermal Technology at the University of Cambridge and a visiting professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Nick has also worked at Rolls Royce Ltd as a Senior Noise Engineer and, more recently, as a Chief Technologist. Andrew Heyes is Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Head of Department in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Strathclyde. He has previously held positions at the University of Leeds and Imperial College London, where he spent a number of years teaching engine design based on the second edition of Jet Propulsion. Before Imperial, he worked with Rolls-Royce and British Aerospace (Military Aircraft Division, Warton). He is a Chartered Engineer and Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.

About the book >.>.> Jet Propulsion is a comprehensive introduction to the aerodynamic and design principles of modern civil and military jet engines, focusing on a fundamental understanding of the subject. The text employs two engine design projects?one for a large passenger aircraft and another for a new fighter aircraft?to elucidate contemporary engine configurations. It addresses essential topics such as aircraft requirements, aerodynamics, the principles of gas turbines and jet engines, and elementary compressible fluid mechanics. Additionally, it covers critical aspects such as bypass pressure ratio selection, dimensional analysis, as well as turbine and compressor design characteristics, including design optimisation and off-design performance.This thoroughly revised third edition reflects the contemporary shift in the civil aircraft industry towards two-engine configurations, significantly emphasising the reduction of fuel consumption. It features a wealth of exercises that facilitate design understanding, including the development of a civil engine followed by a military combat engine. Moreover, it adopts fan pressure ratio as the primary design variable instead of the bypass ratio, allowing for a more coherent design strategy based on a clearer understanding of physical dependencies.Authored by Nicholas Cumpsty, a Professor Emeritus at Imperial College London with extensive experience in aerothermal technology, and Andrew Heyes, Head of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Strathclyde, the book benefits from the authors' authoritative expertise in the field. Cumpsty?s prior roles include Chief Technologist at Rolls-Royce and teaching at prestigious institutions, while Heyes has a background in both academic and industrial settings. This joint expertise enriches the content, making it invaluable for students and professionals in the field of jet engine design. Nº de ref. del artículo: Batch-FM730-VG-14670
