Jet Engine Technology

Jet engine technology works by sucking in large amounts of air through an inlet, compressing it to increase pressure, mixing it with fuel and igniting the mixture to produce high-speed exhaust gases. These gases rapidly expand and exit the engine, creating a powerful thrust that propels the aircraft forward. The process relies on the principles of aerodynamics and thermodynamics, efficiently converting fuel into motion. Jet engines are favored for their high speed, efficiency at cruising levels, and ability to generate significant thrust, making them the core technology behind most modern commercial and military aircraft.
