Can a water jet drive propulsion system be used on a sailboat?
Jet drives have been proposed for auxiliary propulsion for sailboats on and off since the 1930s, perhaps earlier. The chief advantage would be minimum drag under sail; no prop, no strut, no shaft. Some racers have even tried a closure flap over the flush inlet hole. This leaves an absolutely smooth hull when under sail. There is, though, no special advantage with regard to engine placement; the engine and drive shaft have to be located to connect to the impeller as directly as possible to minimize power losses. Using a pump that is separate from the engine wastes too much horsepower. Unfortunately, the laws of physics make jet drive extremely inefficient for boats that operate at less than 25 knots, and that includes all sailboats.
When was first jet plane built?
the flight of the first jet airplane was in Germany
Is glycol more leathal than jet fuel?
Ethylene glycol is quite toxic because it is metabolized into compounds that clog up and kill the kidneys in mammals. Propylene glycol on the other hand is a common food additive. Not all glycols are the same.

IAre Jet A and JP 5 fuel both used in civil airliner jet engines?
Yes. JP5 is primarily used in turbo fan engines, but they are blended for high performance and fuel economy.
What is a turbo prop aircraft?

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 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 engine fuel is used in airplanes?
Airplane engines use jet fuel. Read more, below.
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.
What are facts about Sir Frank Whittle?
He invented the turbo jet engine. And was granted many things. He was the Father of the turbo jet propulsion. He died of lung cancer in 1996.
