Propulsion

Course DirectorySNHU EG330 has 3 direct prerequisites, with 17 courses in its complete prerequisite tree.

Undergraduate · 3 credits

This course provides a basic understanding of, and analysis tools for, various aerospace propulsion systems. Students apply the fundamentals of dynamics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics to complex propulsion systems. Subjects included are: analysis of various common aircraft propulsion systems with emphasis on jet engines (turbojet, turbofan, and turboprop) and their subsystems (including subsonic and supersonic inlets, afterburners and exhaust nozzles). Reciprocating engines (including propeller theories and propeller efficiency analysis) and rocket engines (both solid and liquid propellants) are covered.
