Synopsis:

The aim is to give clear and logic description of construction architecture philosophy of aircraft propulsion units that is based on the need to produce thrust or useful power with high rate of safety and at the same time realized by the machinery as lightweight as possible attaining the highest possible total efficiency with reasonable operating cost.
