Report on the Whittle System of Aircraft Propulsion (Theoretical Stage)—October 1935
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 July 2016
Extract
The purpose of this Report is to record the result of an independent step by step check of the theories, calculations and design proposals originated by Fit. Lt. Whittle, and having for their object the achievement of practical stratospheric transport. No investigation of the patent situation has been attempted.
The inventions and discoveries of Fit. Lt. Whittle have not yet reached the experimental stage, and so the material available for investigation is, necessarily, confined to a reasoned statement of the principles involved, coupled with justifying aerodynamic and thermodynamic calculations and design proposals.
