JNTUK B.Tech Aerospace Propulsion – II gives you detail information of Aerospace Propulsion – II R13 syllabus It will be help full to understand you complete curriculum of the year.
Course Objective
The main objective of the subject is to impart the gas turbine theories ie the principles of operations and performance of impulse and reaction turbine blades. The subject also considers the overall performance of gas turbine and different cooling methods adapted to turbine balding to improve the performance of gas turbine. Thrust control ramjet propulsion, Chemical rockets and advanced propulsive techniques are comprehensively dealt in this subject
