Flashcards
Combustion Process
Combustion Process
The process of compressing air, adding fuel, and igniting the mixture to produce energy.
Turbine Function
Turbine Function
The turbine extracts energy from the hot gas produced by combustion and converts it into mechanical energy to produce thrust.
Air Compression Purpose
Air Compression Purpose
Compressing the air increases its density, allowing more fuel to be burned, which results in a greater energy output.
