Summary of "Jet Engine, How it works?"

This video explains the fundamental principles and components of jet engines, detailing how they generate thrust to propel aircraft forward. It covers the basic physics, the internal working parts, and the evolution from turbojet to turbofan engines, highlighting improvements in efficiency and noise reduction.

Main Ideas and Concepts

Basic Principle of Jet Engines:
- Jet engines operate based on Newton's third law of motion: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- The high-speed jet of exhaust gases expelled from the engine produces a reaction force (thrust) that pushes the aircraft forward.
- The greater the velocity of the exhaust jet, the greater the thrust generated.
How High-Speed Jet is Created:
- Incoming air is compressed and heated to very high temperatures and pressures.
- Fuel is atomized and burned in a Combustion Chamber, heating the air and causing it to expand rapidly.
- This expansion produces a high-velocity exhaust jet.
Key Components and Their Functions:
- Compressor:
  - A series of rotating blades that compress incoming air, raising its pressure and temperature.
  - Powered by the Turbine via a shared shaft.
- Combustion Chamber:
  - Where fuel is burned with compressed air to produce high-temperature, high-energy gas.
- Turbine:
  - Extracts energy from the high-energy exhaust gases to drive the Compressor.
  - Has airfoil-shaped blades that generate lift forces to turn the Turbine.
  - Pressure drops as the Turbine extracts energy.
- Nozzle/Engine Exit:
  - The engine casing narrows toward the outlet, increasing exhaust velocity and thrust.
Synchronized Operation:
- The Compressor, Combustion Chamber, and Turbine work together to produce a hot, high-speed jet that propels the aircraft.
Advanced Compressor-Turbine Arrangements:
- Two-Spool Engines:
  - Two independent Compressor-Turbine stages on concentric shafts.
  - Outer (low-pressure) spool runs at a lower speed, reducing centrifugal stress and improving blade life.
- Three-Spool Engines:
  - Further refinement with three independent Compressor-Turbine stages for enhanced performance.
Types of Jet Engines:
- Turbojet Engine:
  - The basic form described above.
  - Produces high noise levels.
- Turbofan Engine:
  - An improvement on turbojets by adding a large fan connected to the low-pressure spool.
  - The fan moves a large volume of air (bypass air) around the engine core.
  - Most thrust comes from the fan’s reaction force.
  - Benefits include:
    - Increased airflow and thrust.
    - Better fuel efficiency.
    - Reduced noise, as bypassed cold air mixes with hot exhaust, lowering exit jet velocity.
  - Turbofan engines dominate commercial aviation due to these advantages.
Noise Considerations:
- Noise correlates with exhaust jet velocity.
- Turbofan engines reduce noise by mixing cold bypass air with hot exhaust, limiting jet velocity.

Methodology / Process Outline for Jet Engine Operation

Air Intake:
- Air enters the engine and is directed to the Compressor.
Compression:
- Compressor blades rotate, compressing the air and raising its pressure and temperature.
Combustion:
- Atomized fuel is injected and burned in the Combustion Chamber.
- Combustion heats the compressed air, causing it to expand rapidly.
Expansion and Turbine Drive:
- High-energy exhaust gases expand through Turbine blades.
- Turbine extracts energy to power the Compressor via a connected shaft.
Exhaust and Thrust Generation:
- Hot gases exit through a narrowing Nozzle at high velocity.
- The reaction force from the high-speed jet produces thrust, moving the aircraft forward.
Advanced Configurations:
- Use of multiple spools (two or three) to optimize Compressor and Turbine speeds.
- Addition of a large fan in turbofan engines to increase bypass airflow and improve efficiency and noise levels.
