Why is there a vent on the rear of jet airliners?
Jet aircraft need an Auxiliary Power unit (APU) to supply power in order to get the the 2/3/4 turbines rotating before they can start them and add fuel to them. The APU needs an exhaust vent just like any other motor. The APU also supplies cabin air to the cabin while the engines are not started and the aircraft is on the ground. So the vent on the back of the aircraft is an exhaust vent for the air bleeding off of the APU.
What is the exhaust pipe on the rear of the Boeing 737 and 747 fuselage for?
On the very rear of the fuselage of the B747 is a round exhaust for the Auxillary Power Unit(APU). Every large passenger aircraft has an APU that is used to provide electrical & hydraulic power to the aircraft while it is on the ground (or also in the air during an emergency). The APU is a small jet engine that runs off the same fuel as the jet engines that provide thrust to the aircraft. The Wikipedia link shows a view of the APU exhaust and a view of the engine.
