Abstract

This book discusses the construction and operating principle of a turboprop engine; the various structural diagrams for TVD (turbo-prop engines) are described in understandable form, as are the operating conditions for the individual units of such an engine. The material pertaining to the physical processes taking place within the engine is presented in systematic order. Particular attention has been devoted to the operational characteristics and problems of TVD control. The book is intended for flight and engineertechnical personnel of the Soviet Air Forces and the Civil Air Fleet. The book may also be useful for students in aviation flight and engineering educational institutions as well as for the technical personnel using gas-turbine powerplants in the field of transportation and under stationary conditions. The material contained in this book is based on data gathered from foreign aviation-engine construction practice. Problems of the future are described from the standpoint of foreign opinions.
