The overall mission of the Microturbines & Small Turbomachinery Committee is to foster the dissemination of new technical information about gas turbines and small turbomachines in propulsion systems of all types of vehicles (except ships and aircraft) and in auxiliary power systems.

In all of its effort the Committee strives to promote individual professional excellence while also cultivating good fellowship.

The Committee follows gas turbine, including microturbine and small turbomachine, developments in these categories: stationary and mobile power, transportation (including automobiles, trucks, buses, trains, boats, surface effect machines, tanks and other special military vehicles, off-highway vehicles), auxiliary power units, turbochargers, turbo-compounding, and other small special equipment.

The Committee seeks analytical, technological and experimental information for publication or discussion in these areas: system performance, component performance, special materials, system design, component design, special fuels, environmental characteristics, manufacturing, and installation.
