Book excerpt: The bases of gas dynamics are set forth in application to the theory of jet engines and other gas machines and apparatuses. A detailed analysis is made of the theory of one-dimensional gas flows on which rest largely the contemporary methods of calculation of jet engines, vane machines, ejectors, wind tunnels, and test stands. Separate chapters are dedicated to the boundary- layer theory and theory of jets lying at the basis of the determination of the friction drag, velocity fields, and temperatures in nozzles, diffusers, combustion chambers, ejectors, etc.
