  1. ramjet engine

    A ramjet engine, also known as a flying stovepipe or an aero-thermodynamic duct, is a type of airbreathing jet engine that uses the engine’s forward motion to compress incoming air without an axial compressor or a centrifugal compressor. The high pressure in front of the engine forces air through the inlet into a combustion chamber, where it is mixed with fuel and ignited, providing thrust. Ramjets cannot produce thrust while stationary; instead, they require an initial forward speed to operate efficiently.
