Description

English: Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine (in English). Air is compressed by the fan blades as it enters the engine, and it is mixed and burned with fuel in the combustion section. The hot exhaust gases provide forward thrust and turn the turbines which drive the compressor fan blades.

Français : Schéma en anglais montrant un turboréacteur d'avion typique (simple flux, simple corps). L'air est comprimé par les pales en entrant dans le réacteur, puis est mélangé avec le carburant qui brule dans la chambre à combustion. Les gaz d'échappement donnent une forte poussée en avant et fait tourner les turbines qui actionnent les pales de compression.

中文: 一个典型的燃气涡轮喷气发动机图解。
