A technical reference of all PW engines and their applications, the book describes the evolution of piston engines and gas turbines, and offers young engineers a wealth of insights about design, development, marketing, and product support efforts for customers at home and abroad. The first three chapters introduce the contributions of Frederick Rentschler, George Mead, and Leonard Hobbs, with stories of how each new piston engine came into being. From 19401945 PW committed its engineering efforts to winning World War II, but when the war was over, PW found itself on the outside of the gas turbine market, which was capably being served by General Electric and Westinghouse. How PW emerged from being five years behind the competition in 1945 to a positioLibrary of flight.AirplanesMotorsHistoryAircraft gas-turbinesHistoryJet enginesHistoryAirplanesMotorsHistory.Aircraft gas-turbinesHistory.Jet enginesHistory.629.134/35Connors Jack1866301Allen Ned1866302American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958582103321The engines of Pratt & Whitney4473679UNINA
