The turbojet is an airbreathing jet engine which is typically used in aircraft. It consists of a gas turbine with a propelling nozzle. The gas turbine has an air inlet which includes inlet guide vanes, a …

Today, turbojet engines are primarily used in military aviation, powering high-speed fighter jets. Turbojets have also been employed in cruise missiles and certain high-speed unoccupied aerial …

Nov 20, 2025 · turbojet, jet engine in which a turbine-driven compressor draws in and compresses air, forcing it into a combustion chamber into which fuel is injected. Ignition causes the gases to expand …

Jul 11, 2025 · In the post-war years, researchers used the Jet Propulsion Static Laboratory (JPSL) to develop technologies to increase jet engine thrust.

The idea of using an automotive turbocharger as a jet engine seems at first to be inconceivable, however, given the job that it does in an internal combustion engine this concept actually makes sense.

This paper describes how we built a jet engine using a truck turbocharger. We review the history of jet engines, types of jet engines, how we built our jet engine and the engineering analysis behind it.

Jul 28, 2025 · But how does a turbo jet engine work? A turbojet engine works by taking in air through an inlet, compressing it, mixing it with fuel, igniting the mixture, and then exhausting the hot gases to …
