How a Jet Airliner Works

 How a Jet Airliner Works

Explore the intricate mechanics powering modern aviation in Velo3D's Metal in Motion Episode 6: "How A Jet Engine Works." From the intake compressing air efficiently to the combustion process and turbine-driven turbines, witness the symphony of precision engineering.

Experience the magic that propels aircraft forward, creating thrust and sustaining flight, showcasing the engineering excellence that defines modern air travel. Watch the full episode for an in-depth journey into the heart of jet engine technology.

In this video jet engine is briefly discussed that how does it work.

 

At the simplest level the way a jet engine works can be reduced to just four steps: suck, squeeze, bang, and blow.

1. Intake (Suck) – Air is smoothed and introduced in a controlled manner

2. Compression (Squeeze) – The Air is compressed which increases the heat and pressure.

3. Combustion (Bang) – The compressed air is mixed with atomized fuel which causes the mixture to burn

4. Exhaust (Blow) – Kinetic energy from the high energy exhaust gases push past the turbine blades which converts the kinetic energy into torque and transmitted through the internal shaft to the fan blades in the compressor in order to repeat the cycle, then the gases are purged.
