afterburner

A device in the engine of an aircraft which injects fuel into the exhaust system to increase the thrust

afterburner

{i} fuel-injector in a turbojet engine

afterburner

an air pollution abatement device that removes undesirable organic gases through incineration

afterburner

Second combustion chamber in a turbojet or turbofan engine, immediately in front of the engine's exhaust nozzle. The injection and combustion of extra fuel in this chamber provide additional thrust for takeoff or supersonic flight; in most cases, the afterburner can nearly double the thrust of a turbojet engine. The jet nozzle must be larger when using the afterburner, so an automatic, adjustable nozzle is an essential component of the afterburner system. Because the afterburner sharply increases fuel consumption and is generally less effective at subsonic speeds, its use is usually restricted to supersonic military aircraft

afterburner

is a section added between the turbine and the nozzle of an aircraft turbine engine where additional fuel is injected into the oxygen-rich combustion gases leaving the turbine As a result of this added energy, the exhaust gases leave at a higher velocity, providing extra thrust for short takeoffs or combat conditions is a section added between the turbine and the nozzle of an aircraft turbine engine where additional fuel is injected into the oxygen-rich combustion gases leaving the turbine As a result of this added energy, the exhaust gases leave at a higher velocity, providing extra thrust for short takeoffs or combat conditions

afterburner

The afterburner is a second chamber which afterburing (or reheat) is a method of augmenting the basic thrust of an engine to improve the aircraft takeoff, climb and (for military aircraft) combat performance Afterburning consists of the introduction and burning of raw fuel between the engine turbine and the jet pipe propelling nozzle, utilizing the unburned oxygen in the exhaust gas to support combustion The increase in the temperature of the exhaust gas increases the velocity of the jet leaving the propelling nozzle and therefore increases the engine thrust This increased thrust could be obtained by the use of a larger engine, but this would increase the weigh and overall fuel consumption

afterburner

In incinerator technology, a burner located so that the combustion gases are made to pass through its flame in order to remove smoke and odors It may be attached to or be separated from the incinerator proper

afterburner

a device injects fuel into a hot exhaust for extra thrust
