Scope
This course applies the fundamentals of thermodynamics to the study of air-breathing (turbojets, turbofans, and turboprops/turboshafts) and non air-breathing (rocket) air vehicle propulsion systems. Propulsive forces and performance parameters for these propulsion systems will be explored. Propeller characteristics and performance of electric and hybrid-electric
propulsion systems are introduced. ***Pending ABET-PEV review of ET=3.5CR.***
