Choice Review

One of three books in a series representing a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of theory and technology for major aircraft gas turbine components. This work expands on the fundamentals introduced in the first of this AIAA series, Aerothermodynamics of Gas Turbine and Rocket Propulsion, also edited by G.C. Oates (1984). Topics covered are combustion, afterburners, axial compressors, turbine aerodynamics, turbine cooling, turbomachinery boundary layers, and noise. Each chapter is written by an expert in the given specialty from industry or academia, and includes an extensive bibliography and references. An excellent reference for libraries that service advanced undergraduate and graduate aerospace engineers and practicing professional engineers.-H.E. Ellinger, formerly Western Michigan University
