The University of Nottingham (UON)

Outlines the challenges in improving the environmental impact of an engine, then goes into the stoichiometric value, and then emissions.

Details the operation of a compressor, displays how to draw velocity triangles, then goes into compressor stage loading and polytropic efficiency

Provides information on the initial details in the engine design process, before going into the product life cycle, product requirements, manufacture and service.

Provides information on the initial details in the engine design process, before going into the product life cycle, product requirements, manufacture and service.

Begins with engine sizing and thrust, before going into static and stagnation conditions. Then covers compressor power, turbine power and net power, followed by nozzles, non-dimensional values and work.

Goes through the basics of Propulsion in Aerospace, detailing the creation of thrust, the Brayton/Joule Cycle, Exchange of work and Isentropic efficiency, as well as the flight envelope and engine architectures.

Outlines the different modes of heat transfer and the maths governing these. Applies Fourier's law and goes into thermal resistance.

Details open systems, specifically the conservation of mass, the steady flow energy equation, specific flow work, specific enthalpy, and perfect gases in open systems.

Explains perfect gases and the mathematical basis for them, then details polytropic and isentropic processes as well as how perfect gases relate to them.

Bit more information on the 2nd law of thermodynamics, then goes into more depth on entropy, particularly energy quality and disorder. Details a Sterling Engine and then goes into a Mathematical analysis of entropy and then goes into heat pumps and refrigerators.
