Features: This book consists of 10 chapters. The first 8 chapters primarily introduce aviation gas-turbine engines, including the thermodynamic cycles of various types of engines such as turbojet, turbofan, turboprop, and turboshaft, as well as thrust, propulsion efficiency, and thermodynamic calculations at design points. It also covers the coordinated operation of various components, engine control laws, and characteristics. The 9th chapter introduces hypersonic air-breathing engines, including the inlet, combustion chamber, afterburner, and overall engine performance as well as the installation performance of the propulsion system. This book is suitable as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in the field of aircraft propulsion engineering and can also serve as a reference for relevant technical personnel.
