UnAnswerd said:Hey thanks for the link. Pretty good pictures in there. I assume you can identify a turbofan by the distinctive turbine blades in front of the engine????
Gatorman said:A turbo jet engine has a single shaft that connects the turbines with the fan blades.
A turbo fan engine has an additional shaft with a second set of turbine blades driving the forward set of inlet blades, i.e., the fan.Useually, but not always.
By defintion a Trubofan allows air to bypass the "core" of the engine where the fuel is burned.
Most of the time turbofans are "dual spool" designs, but if they only ran off of one shaft it would still be a turbofan.
