Jet Propulsion Engines
Princeton University Press 1959
|
This is a wonderful book though the title may be a bit misleading as the book details all manners of all aerospace engines which function as a jet. Rockets, ramjets, pulsejets, wave engines, airflow jets, turbojets, ramrockets, and nuclear jets. It's a collection of 12 volumes A through L by over 100 contributors,
all experts in their field of propulsion. Almost 800 pages of history,
pictures, diagrams, graphs, and theory. A very interesting read and
a terrific resource.
