  • the turbo fan engine is a complex synchronization of several components

  • working together has two parts

  • a course section that produces power to drive the proposer section

  • that produces thrust

  • trust is a force created by the acceleration affair

  • this phenomenon is simply an application of newton's second law of motion

  • commonly expressed as

  • force equals mass times acceleration

  • it is this force that propels the aircraft

  • to see how this rosters develop

  • let's look at the internal workings of pratt and whitney cdw forty one oh two

  • for both an engine

  • the first component and the engine is the huge nine foot diameter fan

  • that rotates twenty eight hundred times a minute at takeoff

  • this giant fans suck cinema varaku vacuum out there

  • in less than half a second

  • as the air races through the massive man it separated into two streams

  • only fifteen percent of the air flows into the interior core of the engine

  • the remaining eighty five percent of the year

  • used article on the outside of the corner

  • and is forced through whatever narrowing space

  • the fan duct

  • picking up speed along the way

  • the ratio of despair by passing the course through the air passing through

  • the court

  • is called the bypass ratio

  • because of its huge volumes

  • the bypassed their only needs to accelerate a small amount in order to

  • develop an enormous amount of corruption

  • me while the other fifteen percent of the year has entered the first component

  • in the engines cork the low pressure compressor

  • here the air passes through several smaller stages

  • each consisting of a set of rotating blades in between a set of stationery

  • blades

  • each stage compresses the air forcing its temperature and pressure to rise

  • after passing through the low pressure compressor the air matters the

  • high-pressure compressor which rotates faster and is responsible for seventy

  • percent of the total pressurized

  • after the air has passed through both compressors it is thirty five times

  • higher in pressure and upper house of degrees hotter than the outside air

  • the compressed air is now with the right pressure but it is moving too fast to be

  • efficiently ignited

  • so it matters but diffuser

  • where it slows down while remaining at the optimum temperature and pressure

  • the air then enters the combustor where it energy level has greatly increased

  • this is accomplished by adding fuel through a series of injectors and

  • igniting him

  • further increasing the temperature of the mixture by sixteen hundred degrees

  • the higher the pressure of the air the more energy will be started during

  • combustion and the more efficient this process becomes

  • this is why the compressors were used to increase the heirs pressure

  • the superheated and compressed air mixture is ready for the next day

  • blasting through the high-pressure turbine

  • the high-energy air spins the blades that over ten thousand revolutions per

  • minute

  • these blades are connected to a shaft that runs through the center of the and

  • drives the high-pressure compressor

  • in fact he only purpose of the high-pressure turbine

  • is to extract enough energy from the air to turn the high-pressure compressor

  • together these components make up the high school

  • next the air passes through the larger low-pressure turbans

  • disturbing has two purposes

  • first of extract enough energy from the air to power of the low pressure

  • compressor at the front of the engine core

  • these two components are connected via a second shaft

  • which actually passes through the center

  • of the high school

  • however the second and more important job with the low pressure turban is

  • concerned the large titanium fan blades upfront

  • the families connected to the same shaft as the low pressure compressor and

  • low-pressure turbine

  • together these three components make up the low score

  • finally become busted air races out through the exhaust nozzle at the back

  • of the engine to be accelerated one last time

  • the speed at which this gas tax it's the nozzle is called chapel ostatic

  • this exhaust stream produces only twenty percent of the engines total thrust

  • remaining eighty percent is produced by the large volume of accelerated bypass

  • air exiting the fandom
