Description
Hello dear student. Welcome to my course Aerospace Engineering: Basics of Aviation Engines. Aviation nowadays is an indivisible part of our life. It’s progressing and developing at a very high speed. With this course, I will help you to understand the basics of aviation and take the first steps in this universe. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or if you already have any aviation knowledge. If you’re a beginner you will learn something new soon and if you already have any aviation knowledge I’m sure that this course will help you to repeat, improve it and make it fresh. We will start from the main part of an aircraft which is called a powerplant or engine.I’m going to teach you the basics of aviation engines and their classifications. We will learn which types of aviation engines there are in the world and where they are used. This course will take you through the fascinating world of aviation engines and their functions. We’ll break it down into smaller parts to make it easy to grasp and guide you through each step with care. I hope you will find this course enjoyable and useful.We will discuss different types of aviation engines and their classifications during this course. I will explain the working principles of each engine and the different parameters that affect aviation engines. You will learn all the main parts of engines their purposes in aviation engines and working principles. You will also learn how to calculate thrust, specific fuel consumption, engine temperature ratio, engine pressure ratio, etc. This course will help you to gain comprehensive knowledge in the aviation sphere. If you are interested in aviation, you want to work as a maintainer in the future or you are already working in this sphere this course is for you. So don’t waste your time and obtain this course right now to start your trip through the aviation universe. See you on the course.
