Abstract

While the aircraft gas turbines are designed to run efficiently in a given environment and at given operating conditions, it is evident that, except under cruise conditions, the engine is off the design conditions. In this chapter, we therefore consider operation of the gas turbine with respect to operation of the design conditions.
