A companion volume to the text, Practical Intake Aerodynamic Design, this important book considers the problem of airflow, both internal and external to the air intake, as applied to both civil and military aircraft. It covers the aerodynamics of both subsonic and supersonic intakes in real flows, maintaining a progression through the transonic range. Also considered is the critically necessary joint perspective of the airframe designer and the propulsion specialist in practical cases. The text keeps mathematics to the simplest practical level and contains over 300 drawings and diagrams.

This volume is an excellent introduction to the aerodynamics of helicopters. Basic Helicopter Aerodynamics provides an account of the first principles in the fluid mechanics and flight dynamics of single-rotor helicopters. The text is intended to provide, in a short volume, an introduction to the theory of rotary-wing aircraft for use by undergraduate and graduate students, while providing a detailed description of the physical phenomena involved. The text assumes that the reader already has some knowledge of differences between the fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. Many diagrams, drawings, graphs, and representative sets of data augment the text.
