Difference between Turbofan and Turbomachinery

Turbofan vs. Turbomachinery

The turbofan or fanjet is a type of airbreathing jet engine that is widely used in aircraft propulsion. Turbomachinery, in mechanical engineering, describes machines that transfer energy between a rotor and a fluid, including both turbines and compressors.

Similarities between Turbofan and Turbomachinery

Turbofan and Turbomachinery have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Compressor, Gas turbine, General Electric, Jet engine, Turbine, Turbofan, Turbojet, Turboprop, Turboshaft.
