Comments by "John Cunningham" (@johncunningham4820) on "Appreciating The Beauty of Jet Engines by Juxtaposing Them Against Piston Engines" video.
As always an Excellent Explanation . Yes , that is a simple Turbojet . Like the Mighty Tumansky's that powered the Mig-25 to Mach 3.2 . 🤣. Or the J-58's of the SR-71 . Also Turbojets . The Modern Twin Shaft Turbofan is a different " Animal " entirely . Like the difference between a Flathead and DOHC 4valve . Yes , Gas Turbines are VERY Thirsty . They only have ONE , PARTICULAR speed where Fuel/Work ratio is ideal . Do those next please . Then explain how a " Free Power Turbine " works for Ship propulsion or Power Generation for Electrical Supply . Gas Turbines make VERY big power for something so compact , BUT , they are best at Constant Speed running . Great Video , as usual . You are REALLY good at explaining things for the Layman .
