FAN COMPRESSOR COMBUSTOR TURBINE MIXER NOZZLE
Inlet- inlet is the opening at the front of engine, it allows the outside air to enter the engine. Compressor – compressor is made up of fans with many blades, it compress the air and raises the pressure & temperature of the air, the compressed air then is delivered to the burner.
Burner – Burning process occur here. Fuel is sprayed to the compressed air.The mixture of the fuel + air will be burned. The results is heated gas with high energy, high pressure and high temperature. Turbine- turbine used some of the heated gas energy to turn the compressor. This energy is transferred through the shaft. Nozzle- The balance of heated gas energy exits through the nozzle at very high speed. This causes thrust. As the jets of gas shoot backward, the engine and the aircraft are thrust forward. (Newton 3 rd Law)
