The Gas Turbine Propulsion Toolbox (GTPT) is a collection of programs that can be used to study gas turbine engine performance. The programs are implemented as GNU Octave functions and scripts. However, the programs should run correctly in MATLAB, and any problems running the programs in GNU Octave or MATLAB are considered as bugs.

GTPT is based on the engine models contained in Aerothermodynamics of Gas Turbine and Rocket Propulsion (Third Edition) by Gordon C. Oates. GTPT reproduces some of the functionality of the Engine Cycle Analysis Program (ECAP) and the Engine Off-Design Performance Program (EOPP), which are distributed with the book by Oates.

Copy all of the GTPT files and folders to a convenient location, and add that location to your GNU Octave (or MATLAB) path.
