  1. Gas turbine engines are, theoretically, extremely simple. They have three parts:

    Compressor - Compresses the incoming air to high pressure

    Combustion area - Burns the fuel and produces high-pressure, high-velocity gas

    Turbine - Extracts the energy from the high-pressure, high-velocity gas flowing from the combustion chamber

    The compressor is basically a cone-shaped cylinder with small fan blades attached in rows (eight rows of blades are represented here). Assuming the light blue represents air at normal air pressure, then as the air is forced through the compression stage its pressure rises significantly. In some engines, the pressure of the air can rise by a factor of 30. The high-pressure air produced by the compressor
