  1. turbofan engine

    A turbofan engine is a specific type of jet engine that uses a large fan at the front to draw air into the engine and a portion of this air is then diverted around the combustion chamber, rather than going through it. This unlocks greater efficiency and less noise than other types of jet engines. It's commonly used in commercial aviation due to its fuel efficiency, high thrust and reduced noise characteristics.
