Mostafa M. Samy; Mohamed A. Metwally; Mahmoud Ashry; Wael M. Elmayyah – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2025
Gas Turbine Engines (GTE) have the highest power-to-weight ratio among Internal Combustion Engines (ICE). Its modularity and ability to utilize various types of fuel make it highly recommended in power plants, naval transportation, and, of course, the most equipped in aviation. The lack of GTEs' real data is increasing a recognized need for…
