Design and Operation of Aircraft Gas Turbine Engines,
Abstract
The textbook presents an analysis of the designs of modern gas turbine engines. It discusses forces acting on the essential units, and their dependence on the operating regimes of the engine and the flight conditions. The construction and the operation of the engine components and parts are described. Methods of calculating safety factors for the most heavily loaded parts are given. Problems of vibration and methods of computing the vibrational load factors for engines are discussed. The operation and construction of the lubrication, fuel supply, start-up, and automatic engine control systems are examined. Brief data are given on the servicing of the engines when in operation.
