Air is sucked into the engine using giant fans called axial compressors (compressors for short), which compress the air into a very dense structure. The air is then mixed with jet fuel which creates a very potent flammable mixture which is then lit. After the fuel and air is lit, there is a constant controlled explosion where the air and fuel turns into gas and expands extremely fast and is forced out the back of the jet. Without the fuel, the air would not ignite.
Jet fuel is different from gasoline used in passenger cars and has more in common with diesel fuel in which both diesel and jet fuel are designed to have high flash points and allows for high compression.

What is use for jet fuel?
The combustion of the jet fuel in the engine of a jet aircraft propells the craft forward when it exits the nozzles of the jet engine(s) at high speed.
Does jet fuel work on savage x?
No it does not work because jet fuel is a different compound then regular RC fuel.
What is an aircraft engine?
A mechanical device that can work by means of fuel consumption. A mechanical device that can work by means of fuel consumption.
Why is a jet engine called air breathing engine?
A jet engine uses fuel from the aircraft's fuel tanks, but gets its oxidizer from oxygen in the air. So it won't work in space, where there is no air. A similar engine that carried its own oxygen would be called a "rocket", and WOULD work in space - because it wouldn't need air.
What type of fuel does a turboprop engine use?
jet fuel
The name of fuel that the plane uses?
Avgas, or if it has a jet engine, it would use either Jet-A1 or Jet-B fuel.
What fuel is used in a turbo jet engine?
av gas; i.e. aviation gasoline. Jet fuel.
Can higher octane fuel reduce engine vibration?
High Octane fuel is highly refined fuel which is often used by the aircrafts and jet airliners. Therefore, such fuel will definitely help you to lower down the engine vibration.

What fuel does a jet engine use?
Jet A, which is similar to kerosene.Jet A, which is similar to kerosene.
What is the miles per gallon on jet fuel?
Depends on what airplane the jet engine is mounted in.
How does the after bunner jet engine work?
Jet fuel is sprayed into the exhaust gas steam and ignited, as this happens, the end of the primary nozzle constricts hydraulically and the result is increased thrust as the jet exhaust is "after burned".
