* Comprehensive treatment of Gas Turbines from Design to Operation and Maintenance. In depth treatment of Compressors with emphasis on surge, rotating stall, and choke; Combustors with emphasis on Dry Low NOx Combustors; and Turbines with an emphasis on Metallurgy and new cooling schemes. An excellent introductory book for the student and field engineers

* A special section of the problem, which is connected with the problems of a gas turbine, is a troublesome problem.

* The third edition consists of the Case Histories of Gas Turbine problems. This should be the generic problems.
