Book Description
This absorbing, anecdotal history of gas turbine aircraft engine development in the United States was ten years in the making. It spans over 50 years of scientific discovery, corporate intrigue, and insight into the minds of the inventors, the sponsors, and the manufacturers. It conveys the danger of world war and the tension of the Cold War. Approximately 600 pages, it includes 19 chapters and 68 engine addenda, plus hundreds of photographs and figures, a comprehensive index, engine specifications, and performance ratings.

ISBN: 3319759795
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 766
Book Description
The book is written for engineers and students who wish to address the preliminary design of gas turbine engines, as well as the associated performance calculations, in a practical manner. A basic knowledge of thermodynamics and turbomachinery is a prerequisite for understanding the concepts and ideas described. The book is also intended for teachers as a source of information for lecture materials and exercises for their students. It is extensively illustrated with examples and data from real engine cycles, all of which can be reproduced with GasTurb (TM). It discusses the practical application of thermodynamic, aerodynamic and mechanical principles. The authors describe the theoretical background of the simulation elements and the relevant correlations through which they are applied, however they refrain from detailed scientific derivations.

Fundamentals and Applications of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (SCO2) Based Power Cycles
Author: Klaus BrunPublisher: Woodhead Publishing
ISBN: 0081008058
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
Fundamentals and Applications of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (SCO2) Based Power Cycles aims to provide engineers and researchers with an authoritative overview of research and technology in this area. Part One introduces the technology and reviews the properties of SCO2 relevant to power cycles. Other sections of the book address components for SCO2 power cycles, such as turbomachinery expanders, compressors, recuperators, and design challenges, such as the need for high-temperature materials. Chapters on key applications, including waste heat, nuclear power, fossil energy, geothermal and concentrated solar power are also included. The final section addresses major international research programs. Readers will learn about the attractive features of SC02 power cycles, which include a lower capital cost potential than the traditional cycle, and the compounding performance benefits from a more efficient thermodynamic cycle on balance of plant requirements, fuel use, and emissions. - Represents the first book to focus exclusively on SC02 power cycles - Contains detailed coverage of cycle fundamentals, key components, and design challenges - Addresses the wide range of applications of SC02 power cycles, from more efficient electricity generation, to ship propulsion
