Design Principles and Methods for Aircraft Gas Turbine Engines

The symposium dealt with design approaches for military aircraft propulsion systems to provide enhanced operational flexibility, longer range, better fuel efficiency and improved affordability. All classes of gas turbines were addressed in nine sessions as follows: Engine Design and Analysis (Part 1) (5 papers); Mechanical Systems (6 papers) Controls (4 papers); Combustors/Augmentors (4 papers); Compressor Systems (Part 1) (5 papers); Compressor Systems (Part 2) (3 papers); Turbines (Part 1) (5 papers); Turbines (Part 2) (4 papers); and Engine Design and Analysis (Part 2) (4 papers). These proceedings also include a Technical Evaluation Report and a Keynote address published in French and English.
