Difference between Combustor and Turboprop

Combustor vs. Turboprop

A combustor is a component or area of a gas turbine, ramjet, or scramjet engine where combustion takes place. A turboprop engine is a turbine engine that drives an aircraft propeller.

Similarities between Combustor and Turboprop

Combustor and Turboprop have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Centrifugal compressor, Combustion, Compressor, Gas turbine, Jet engine, Jet fuel, Mach number, Ramjet, Turbine, Turbofan, Turboshaft.

Centrifugal compressor

Centrifugal compressors, sometimes termed radial compressors, are a sub-class of dynamic axisymmetric work-absorbing turbomachinery.

Combustion

Combustion, or burning, is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

Mach number

In fluid dynamics, the Mach number (M or Ma) is a dimensionless quantity representing the ratio of flow velocity past a boundary to the local speed of sound.

Ramjet

A ramjet, sometimes referred to as a flying stovepipe or an athodyd (an abbreviation of aero thermodynamic duct), is a form of airbreathing jet engine that uses the engine's forward motion to compress incoming air without an axial compressor or a centrifugal compressor.

Turbine

A turbine (from the Latin turbo, a vortex, related to the Greek τύρβη, tyrbē, meaning "turbulence") is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into useful work.
