Aircraft Turbine Engines. Professors Wild and Davis, both of Purdue University, have updated the classic Aircraft Turbine Engines textbook to create the second edition. This new edition contains the latest in turbine engine technology and manufacturing practices. Of course, it still covers the unchanging principles of heat engines, performance factors, and all the terminology that goes with them.
This book was written for powerplant technicians and crewmembers who service, maintain, and operate gas turbine engines used on today’s aircraft. Comprehensive diagrams and images are used throughout the text to illustrate key concepts. Turbine engine practices and techniques provide background information on standard industry practices. Turbofan, turboprop, and turboshaft engines are explored, emphasizing their differences and how they fulfill unique requirements. Example engine models are explored in detail for each type. Readers can easily understand engine systems and components and their function as part of the overall engine operation.
