From the Foreword:
The Turbo Compound introduced new concepts of engine economy and performance to the aircraft engine operator. Higher powers are now available without substantial change in cylinder working conditions. With the compound engine these powers have proved practical, and they are achieved with lower specific fuel consumption and without danger of detonation or increased cylinder stress. Furthermore, they are available without...
