X.S. Bai TC in Gas Turbines
Gas turbine for modern aviationHans von Ohain and Max Hahn, 1936, Germany, submitted a patent
for a gas turbine for jet propulsionErnst Heinkel Aircraft Company made first true jet propulsion aircraft in 1939, Aug - Sept
Secundo Campiri, Italy, made a gasturbine engine for the CC-2 aircraft, 1940American (with the help of the British) made W.IX engine in 1941, GELater Westinghouse Corporation made contiuous development

Propeller versus Jet Propulsion
Propeller - moves LARGE MASS of air at low velocity
Jet - moves small mass of gas at HIGH VELOCITY

Turbulent flame shape and flame height (3) order of estimation
During time Δt, fuel molecule is convected from inlet to the tip of flame at a speed U, and oxygen molecule is transport by turbulence from air stream to the flame tipat a speed u’.

Recall: Laminar flame shape and flame height - order of estimation
During time Δt, fuel molecule is convected from inlet to the tip of flame at a speed U, and oxygen molecule is diffused from air stream to the flame tip. D is diffusion coef.
