Aero Engines: With A General Introductory Account of the Theory of the Internal Combustion Engine (Eighth Edition), 1917
Item — Special collection MC-19, Book: 076, Book: Catalog Number: TBD
Identifier: 20180004
Abstract
PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.
A short course of lectures on Aero Engines was given by the author at the Northampton Polytechnic Institute during 1914. On the suggestion of Mr Charles E. Larard, M.Inst.C.E., M,I.M.E., Head of the Engineering Department, the matter contained in these lectures - necessarily somewhat rearranged and largely extended-is now issued in book form, in the hope that it may be found of assistance to a wider circle of readers.The engines are classified as...

Aircraft Engines: Theory, Analysis, Design and Operation, 1936
Item — Special collection MC-19, Book: 083, Book: Catalog Number: TBD
Identifier: 20180011
Abstract
PREFACE: This volume has been prepared with a twofold aim: 1. It is designed for a textbook in engineering courses for undergraduate and post-graduate students. 2. It forms a collection of material which is largely new, and which should prove valuable to anyone concerned with design, construction, operation, or maintenance of aircraft engines. This book covers the basic theory and principles of aircraft-engine design and operation, and the authors believe it to be one of three volumes...

A.M. Fuel Systems for Aircraft, 1938
Item — Special collection MC-19, Book: 087, Book: Catalog Number: TBD
Identifier: 20180016
Abstract
Dr. Demtchenko's work is a compilation of theoretical studies of, and practical experiments with, fuel feed systems. It is presented in such clear form that theorists and technicians alike will find in it a valuable guide to this subject which is of such importance to aeronautical security. Although theory here has been gone into with some detail, its practical application has in no case been omitted and the work as a whole constitutes a veritable treatise on fuel systems.NB:...
