Difference between Aircraft and Turbofan

Aircraft vs. Turbofan

An aircraft is a machine that is able to fly by gaining support from the air. The turbofan or fanjet is a type of airbreathing jet engine that is widely used in aircraft propulsion.

Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics, from Greek ἀήρ aer (air) + δυναμική (dynamics), is the study of the motion of air, particularly its interaction with a solid object, such as an airplane wing.

Airbreathing jet engine

An airbreathing jet engine (or ducted jet engine) is a jet engine propelled by a jet of hot exhaust gases formed from heated and expanded air that is drawn into the engine via a compressor, typically a centrifugal or axial type.
