TURBOPROP ENGINE
-The world's first turboprop was designed by the Hungarian mechanical

engineer György Jendrassik.
-A turboprop engine is a turbine engine that drives an aircraft propeller. In its
simplest form a turboprop consists of an intake, compressor, combustor, turbine,
and a propelling nozzle.
-Turboprop engines drive propellers through a reduction gear, which provides
optimum propeller performance at slower rpm speeds. That translates to greater
fuel efficiency and performance at slower airspeeds, which is why turboprops are
popular aircraft turbine engines for small, commuter aircraft, cargo planes and
agricultural use. The propellers are less efficient as the aircraft speed increases,
making them better for planes that do not have travel at higher speeds.

TURBOFAN ENGINE
-The turbofan or fanjet is a type of airbreathing jet engine that is widely used
in aircraft propulsion. The word "turbofan" is a portmanteau of "turbine" and "fan"
- Merging the best features of the turbojet and turboprop, the turbofan is an aircraft
turbine engine that diverts a secondary flow of air around the combustion chamber,
which creates additional thrust. This is the most modern version of an aircraft
turbine engine and the one often found on high-speed transport and fighter planes.
-The turbo portion refers to a gas turbine engine which achieves mechanical
energy from combustion, and the fan, a ducted fan that uses the mechanical energy
from the gas turbine to accelerate air rearwards. Thus, whereas all the air taken in by
a turbojet passes through the turbine (through the combustion chamber), in a
turbofan some of that air bypasses the turbine. A turbofan thus can be thought of as
a turbojet being used to drive a ducted fan, with both of these contributing to
the thrust.

TURBOJET ENGINE
- The turbojet is an airbreathing jet engine, typically used in aircraft. It consists of

a gas turbine with a propelling nozzle. The gas turbine has an air inlet, a compressor,
a combustion chamber, and a turbine (that drives the compressor).
- Two engineers, Frank Whittle in the United Kingdom and Hans von
Ohain in Germany, developed the concept independently into practical engines
during the late 1930s. Turbojets were developed in Germany and England before
World War II.
- This type of engine, air is passed at a high rate of speed into the combustion
chamber where the fuel inlet and igniter is located. The turbine, driven by
expanding air, causes thrust from accelerated exhaust gases. Covington Aircraft has
extensive experience in aircraft engine overhaul, as well as routine maintenance for
these types of engines.

TURBOSHAFT ENGINE
- Turboshaft engines are commonly used in applications that require a sustained high
power output, high reliability, small size, and light weight. These
include helicopters, auxiliary power units, boats and ships, tanks, hovercraft, and
stationary equipment.
- Turboshaft engines are primarily used on helicopters. The biggest difference
between turboshafts and turbojets is that turboshaft engines use the majority of
their power to turn a turbine, rather than produce thrust out the back of the engine.
- Turboshafts are essentially a turbojet engine with a large shaft connect to the back
of it. And since most of these engines are used on helicopters, that shaft is
connected to the rotor blade transmission.
- A turboshaft engine is a variant of a jet engine that has been optimised to produce
shaft power to drive machinery instead of producing thrust. Turboshaft engines are
most commonly used in applications that require a small, but powerful, light weight
engine, inclusive of helicopters and auxiliary power units.
