INTRODUCTION TO GTE
Jet engines are classified into two main categories:
1- Rocket Engines Fuel and Oxidizer are carried on the vehicle to reach higher altitudes with better efficiency. There are different categories for the rocket engines depending on the type of the propellants such as chemical rockets, nuclear rockets and electrical propulsion rockets

INTRODUCTION TO GTE
2- Gas Turbine Engines Fuel only is carried on the vehicle that is why they are called air breathing engines. Thus GTE can travel much greater distances before refueling. It has also better efficiency than rocket engines but it has more complicated configurations.

Turbofan Engines
In the turbofan, a portion of the turbine work is used to supply power to the fan. Generally the turbofan engine is more economical and efficient than the turbojet engine in the subsonic flight. The thrust specific fuel consumption (TSFC, or fuel mass flow rate per unit thrust) is lower for turbofans and indicates a more economical

Ramjet Engine
The ramjet engine consists of an inlet, a combustion zone, and a nozzle. The ramjet does not have the compressor and turbine as the turbojet does. Air enters the inlet where it is compressed and then enters the combustion zone where it is mixed with the fuel and burned. The hot gases are then expelled through the nozzle, developing thrust. The operation of the ramjet depends on the inlet to decelerate the incoming air to raise the pressure in the combustion zone. The pressure rise makes it possible for the ramjet to operate. The higher the velocity of the incoming air, the greater the pressure rise. It is for this reason that the ramjet operates best at high supersonic velocities. At subsonic velocities, the ramjet is inefficient, and to start the ramjet, air at a relatively higher velocity must enter the inlet
