Back in 1960 I had to design a combustion tube to burn salt and phosphorus in high speed air. In order to find the backpressure the air compressor would be facing I found a complete set of formulae about ramjets in a textbook published by McGraw-Hill.
The textbook was about jet propulsion systems and as I remember it, it dealt with gas turbines, pulsejets, ramjets and some others. Unfortunately the book was stolen and I do not have any reference to it. Can anyone identify this textbook for me, based on the limited data I have given?
