    Jet engines were invented after World War II to break the sound barrier. Dr. Hans von Ohain and Sir Frank Whittle are considered pioneers of the jet engine. Jet engines work by compressing air in a compressor, adding and igniting fuel, which spins a turbine to power the compressor. The hot gas is then expelled through a nozzle at high speed, providing thrust. There are different types of jet engines including turbojet, turbofan, turboprop, and turboshaft engines.

    History Of Jet Engines

    After world war II designers dreamed to invent


    an engine which can break the sound barrier
    (speed of sound) , which led to the discovery of
    gas turbine engines which was called as Jet
    engine.
    With the development of gas turbine engine
    during second world war, New era of speed and
    altitude is revealed & Concept of
    intermediaries introduced
    Dr. Hans von Ohain and Sir Frank Whittle were
    the pioneers behind todays jet engines.
    Introduction
    Jet engine is also called Gas Turbine
    Engine.
    It works under the principle of
    Newtons third law which states that
    For every acting force there is an
    equal and opposite force.

    What is a Jet Engine ?

    A jet engine is a machine designed for the


    purpose of creating large volumes of high
    velocity exhaust gases.
    This is done in order to overcome the
    aerodynamic drag of an airplane.
    In the process of producing high velocity
    exhaust, the engine also produces:
    Electrical Power
    Hydraulic Power
    Pneumatic power for air-conditioning &
    pressurization
    Basic Operation of a Jet Engine
    The basic operations of Jet Engine are as follows :
    Air enters the compressor where it is compressed.
    Fuel is then added and ignited.
    The resulting gas spins the gas turbine.
    The turbine powers the compressor.
    The gas then exists the engine at tailpipe.

    The way a jet engine operates is similar


    To the way an automobile
    engine operates i.e.
    Intake
    Compression
    Ignition
    exhaust
    Structure of Jet Engine
    Brayton Cycle

    Gas turbine engines work on Brayton power cycle.


    The air enters the compressor gets compressed and the
    compressed air enters in to the combustion chamber,
    where the fuel and air are mixed and burnt and passes
    through the turbine, exit through nozzle with high
    acceleration.
    Brayton Cycle

    Since fresh air enters the compressor at the


    beginning and exhaust are thrown out at the end,
    this cycle is an open cycle.

    By replacing the combustion process by a constant


    pressure heat addition process, and replacing the
    exhaust discharging process by a constant pressure
    heat rejection process, the open cycle described
    above can be modified as a closed cycle, called
    ideal Brayton cycle. The ideal Brayton cycle is made
    up of four internally reversible processes.
