AEROTHERMODYNAMICS OF GAS TURBINE AND ROCKET PROPULSION, THIRD EDITION
GORDON OATES1997
This seminal book on gas turbine tecnology has been a best seller since it was first published. It now includes a comprehensive set of software programs that complement the text with problems and design analyses. Software topics included are atmosphere programs, quasi-one dimensional flow programs (ideall constant area heat interaction, adiabatic constant area flow with friction, rocket nozzle performance, normal shock waves, oblique shock waves}, gas turbine programs ( engine cycle analysis and engine off-design performance), and rocket combustion programs (TC and PC given, He and PC given, isentropic expansion) Uses as a standard text in more than 50 universities, the book and software will continue to fulfill the need for a comprehensive modern book on the principles of propulsion.

ELEMENTS OF PROPULSION: GAS TURBINES AND ROCKETS
JACK MATTINGLY2006
This text provides a complete introduction to gas turbine and rocket propulsion for aerospace amd mechanical engineers. Building on the vewry successful Elements of Gas Turbine Propulsion, textbook coverage has been expanded to include rocket propulsion and the materials on gas dynamics has been dramtically improved. The text is divided into four parts: basic concepts and gas dynamics; analysis of rocket propulsion systems: parametric (design point) and performance (off design) analysis of air breathing propulsion systems: and analysis and design of major gas turbine engine components (fans, compressors, tubines, inlets, nozzles, main burners, and afterburners). Design concepts are introduced early (aircraft and rocket performance in an introductory chapter) and integrated througout. Written with extensive input on the design of the book, the book builds upon definitions and gradually develops the thermodynamics, gas dynamics, rocket engine analysis, and gas turbine engine principles. The book contains over 100 worked examples and numerous homework problems so concepts are applied after they are introduced. over 600 illustrations and pictures show basic concepts, trends, and design examples. Eight computer programs accompany the text, which allow for rapid calculation of trends, "what if" questions, conceptual design, homework problems, and homework verification. The software runs in the Windows operating system on PC compatible systems. CONTENTS: Foreword. Preface. List of Symbols. Introduction. Review of Fundamentals. Rocket Propulsion. Aircraft Gas Turbine Engine. Parametric Cycle Analysis of Idel Engines. Component Performance. Parametric Cyle Analysis of Real Engines. Engine Performance Analysis. Turbomachinery.

FUNDAMENTALS OF HYBRID ROCKET COMBUSTION AND PROPULSION
MARTIN J. CHIAVERINI2007
Fundamentals of Hybeid Rocket Combustion and Propulsion is the first text to offer a comprehensive treatment of hybrid rockets. The book editors have pooled together some of the most respected minds in the field, each providing their very special insight and expertise to the text. The content is therefore as up to date as it is broad. EAch chapter offers an expert account of every aspect of hybrid rocket propulsion, including fundamental aspects of hybrid combustion, numerical and theoretical approaches, and various applications. all chapters are enhanced with more than 25 to 35 graphical elements - including tables, figures and photographs-making for an easy and information read. Chapter topics include: an introduction to basic features of hybrid rockets; solid-fuel regression rate and pyrolysis phenomena: numerical and analytical approaches to investigating hybrid rocket combustion and fuel regression behavior; combustion instability; specialized fuels and oxidizers; various aspects of practical applications of hybrid motors; and a survey of alternative geometry hybrid motors. In general, this is a must-have resource for anyone currently working in or studying rocket propulsion. CONTENTS: Introduction to Hybrids.

History of Liquid Propellant Rocket Engines
Not Listed
To this date liquid propellant rocket engines have propelled all the manned space flights, all the space vehicles flying to the planets or deep space, virtually all satellites, and the majority of medium range or intercontinental range ballistic missiles. Furthermore forces or turning moments provided by liquid propellant rocket engines have almost universally controlled the flight path direction and flight maneuvers of essentially all space vehicles. They have been an important essential enabling ingredient for space flight.

This new book, written by one of the foremost experts in rocket propulsion, gives an account of the liquid propellant rocket engine field over the last fourscore and more years.

It is the story about the technological advances that allowed progressive improvements in design, analysis, thrust magnitude, reliability, cost, and performance; where and when those advances were made, including unique engines from the countries most important to this technology; the groups, companies, or organizations of engineers, specialists, and dedicated people who made it happen; and the different kinds of flight vehicles that have been propelled by liquid propellant rocket engines.

You will learn about the early pioneers, amateur rocket societies, evolution of key hardware components, past investigations of different liquid propellants, reorganizations and mergers of key companies, and the principal areas of current and former applications. Both large pump-fed rocket engine and low thrust gas-pressure-fed rocket engines with multiple thrusters are included.

In addition to the United States, histories of rocket engines in Russia, Ukraine, Germany, France, Japan, United Kingdom, People's Republic of China, and India are discussed. this includes some unusual or novel engine features.
