Normally when starting a turbine engine, the starter is used to get the turbine up to operational speeds, then fuel is pumped in with the ignition active.
A "wet start" is a start where the engine is being started with a quantity of fuel already pooled in the engine (perhaps the result of a previous failed start) or the pilot delays ignition beyond what is normal and allows fuel to pool in the engine before ignition. Wet starts can result in a fire plume or a loud bang, and may damage the engine. The most dramatic damage will be to the compresser turbine blades due to pressure and heat failure.

What is bleeding of turbine?
Bleed air in gas turbine engines is compressed air taken from within the engine, after the compressor stage(s) and before the fuel is injected in the burner
When was Teledyne Turbine Engines created?
Teledyne Turbine Engines was created in 1940.
What are the types of fire engines?
The three main classes are the internal combustion engines, steam engines, turbine engines.
What engines did the titanic use?
Two triple expansion steam engines and an exhaust turbine
What vehicles use turbine engines and what kind of fuel do they use?
Turbine engines are most commonly found in airplanes. They use gas for fuel. They are also known as "jet" engines, hence the term for the plane.
What is the differences between gas turbine and turbine engine?
That depends on what you are thinking of. Gas turbine usually refers to all types of jet engines and engines that use the 'jet engine' concept. The turbine engine you are thinking of could be one of a few things, like a jet engine for military aircraft, turboprop, or turbofan for commercial engines.
What is used in aircraft gas turbine engines?
nickel
Are airplanes powered by steam engines?
No. They are powered by internal combustion engines. Or by gas turbine jets.
What elements is used in aircraft gas turbine engines?
nickel
What is LRU in gas turbine engines?
Line replacement units
What was used before atf as a fuel in aeroplane?
A variation of Aviation Turbine Fuel has always been used in turbine engines. Variations of gasoline have always been used in aircraft with piston engines.
Types of gas turbine engines inlets?
the types of gasturbine engines are,turbo jetturbo propturbo fanturbo shaft
How do jet engines accelerate mid air?
By increasing the firing in the Turbine.
