mechanical engineers. Textbook coverage has been revised and expanded, including a new chapter on compressible flow. Design concepts are introduced early and integrated throughout. Written with extensive student input, the book builds upon definitions and gradually develops the thermodynamics, gas dynamics, rocket engine analysis, and gas turbine engine principles. Please note: In order to make room for new content some materials that appeared in previous editions of the book are now available as complimentary Supporting Materials downloads from the publisher web site. For information on accessing this material please consult page 949 in the back of the textbook.
