The book titled Fundamentals of Propulsion is designed as comprehensive study material for a two-semester undergraduate course in Aerospace Engineering. It covers the essential concepts and technologies related to propulsion systems used in aerospace applications. The book consists of 12 well-structured chapters. The first chapter serves as an introduction to the field of propulsion, setting the foundation for more detailed study.Chapters II to VI are covered in the first semester and include key topics such as Heat Transfer, Propeller Aerodynamics, Combustion, Internal Combustion Engines, and Gas Turbines. These chapters provide students with an understanding of fundamental principles and practical aspects of propulsion components and processes.The second semester focuses on advanced topics discussed in Chapters VII to XII. These include Gas Dynamics, Intake and Propelling Nozzle design, Ideal and Real Turbojet Engine Cycle Analysis, Axial Flow Compressor, and Axial Flow Turbine. This part of the book delves deeper into the mechanics and thermodynamics of airbreathing propulsion systems.The authors intend for this book to serve not only Aerospace Engineering students but also those preparing for competitive exams such as GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering). Additionally, working professionals in the aerospace industry may find it a valuable resource for quick review and reference on airbreathing propulsion systems and related concepts.
