Summary: An excenllent reference book
Comment: It is the most comprehensive and detailed book on gas turbine performance one could find in public domain. One debatable feature of the book is to have all equations in FORTRAN/BASIC format together in the end of each chapter. This makes the equation lengthy and sometimes difficult to follow its physical meaning. Nevertheless, it is a very excellent reference book.

Rating: 4
Summary: Good for people simulating Gas turbine performance.
Comment: I wish I had this book when I was writing my thesis. I had to learn this stuff the hard way. All you need to know for simulating gas turbine engines is in there. My only complaints are that the book smells funny, and there should be 'actual' compressor maps in there (although these are hard to get).

Rating: 5
Summary: A book that explains it all
Comment: This book is definitively the most comprehensive one on the topic of gas turbine performance. From the basics of thermodynamics to the issues of control systems, it covers all the useful topics a performance engineer should be aware of. Detailed explanations of physical issues like transient behavior, surge ... are given in a clear and simple way. Always a handy source of information on a desk.
