How does a gas turbine work?
In: Engineering
You have a spinning shaft that compresses air. You have a combustor to burn the fuel in compressed air. You have a downstream turbine that spins from the force of the combustion.
That’s pretty much the gist of it. Air comes in, air is compressed, air mixes with fuel, fuel is burned, the force of the burning spins the turbine, and you vent the exhaust.
