As in the previous editions, there is an abundance of figures and tables. And there is much information on practical design and operation issues. These features make this book suitable for undergraduate and graduate instruction as well as highly useful for practicing engineers.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">The book&rsquo;s twenty chapters form four substantial major groupings. Chapters 1 to 5 provide, in order, introductions to rocket propulsion methods, terminology, fluid mechanics, rocket flight performance and chemistry. The chapter on heat transfer that appeared in the introductory material of previous editions has been removed with some of its material merged into other sections of the book. Chapters 1 and 5 are particularly helpful in teaching rocket propulsion to undergraduates who have had basic thermodynamics and compressible flow.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Click download link below for more information<\/p>\n<p> <strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Ref:<\/strong> <em>JPyro, Issue 20, 2004, pp 74-75<br \/> (J20_74)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rocket Propulsion Elements, Seventh Edition George P.
