The Brayton cycle is the fundamental thermodynamic cycle for gas turbine engines used in aircraft propulsion. It describes how air

Range is the maximum distance an aircraft can fly on a given amount of fuel. In aircraft propulsion analysis, range

Efficiency in aircraft propulsion measures how effectively an engine converts the chemical energy of fuel into useful thrust. It is

Thrust is the fundamental force produced by an aircraft engine to propel the aircraft forward. In aerothermodynamics, understanding thrust is

Compressible flow is the study of fluid motion where variations in fluid density are significant. In aircraft propulsion, this is
