Item — Special collection MC-19, Book: 079, Book: Catalog Number: TBD
Identifier: 20180007
Abstract
PREFACE This volume attempts two things: to formulate existing knowledge of the functioning of the airplane engine and its auxiliaries; and to present and discuss the essential constructive details of those engines whose excellence has resulted in their survival. The material here collected is largely new; very little of it could have been written before the war and only a small fraction was available for publication before 1919. It is based mainly on the researches and engine developments...
