Abstract
This article is based on the fundamental thermodynamics theory to analyze the difference between the turbojet and turbofan engines. The result of this article is that the turbofan engine is suitable for commercial use since it consumes less fuel and has a higher bypass ratio than the turbojet engine. But low bypass ratio engines can serve the military since they have a smaller volume and higher speed, suitable for air combat. The turbojet engine can travel at a supersonic speed since it has extremely high jet flow from the nozzle and much higher fuel consumption, so it is for military use. This article also analyses two cases: i) How the number of fan blades and outlet guide vans affects the noise of the engine produced. ii) When airplanes fly through volcanic ash, how does the ash damage the airplane and the engine? The engineer found that 55 outlet guide vans are better than 37. To prevent airplanes from flying through volcanic ash, satellite weather photos start to show the volcanic ash area.
