A ramjet has no moving parts. It's also called a "stovepipe jet," and it's more like a rocket engine that breathes air than it is a regular jet engine. It has a tube with a cone in it to compress air. The compressed air then has fuel added, and the fuel is ignited. The expansion of the gases caused by the combustion gives the engine its thrust.
Here's how they differ:
A ramjet won't start unless the plane it's on is already in motion. A turbine engine will.
A ramjet can't move a plane that's standing still, and turbines do that all the time.
OTOH, ramjets are really cheap to make. They're used on things like missiles that are launched from planes. A missile with a rocket engine needs to have solid propellant in it all the time, and solid propellant, under some circumstances, can ignite when you don't want it to. That's bad. A missile with a ramjet burns jet fuel, and you don't need to fuel the missile until you are ready to use it.

What is a turbo fan engine?
It is a jet engine used by airplanes, helicopters and power boats. It is composed of a intake fan and turbine engine. See link below.
What is the new jet engine?
there is apparently a jet engine designed in new zealand by a josh and camden Thompson that exhilarates its self its turbo jet design bringing the ids infinite drive system compresses the air and fuel then uses the rear fan to push even more air and compress even more ask your q about the infinite turbo jet

What are the names of the jet turbo engines?
The term jet engine is loosely referring to an internal combustion airbreathing jet engine. A turbo, or turbocharger is a device, usually fitted to a car or truck, to increase an engine's efficiency by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. I can see how you might have confused the two, as they are both primarily based on a turbine-driven design.
