fanjet

A large passenger airplane flies high in the sky, powered by its powerful fanjet engines.

Definition
  1. Noun:
    • A type of jet engine: A fanjet is a jet engine where a large fan at the front, powered by a turbine, compresses air. Some of this air goes into the core for combustion, while the rest bypasses the core to provide additional thrust, making it more efficient and quieter than older turbojet engines.
    • An airplane using this engine: A fanjet is also an airplane that is propelled by one or more fanjet engines.
Examples of Usage
  • Noun (Engine):
    • The modern aircraft's fanjet is significantly more fuel-efficient than its predecessors.
    • The key innovation of the fanjet is its high-bypass design.
  • Noun (Airplane):
    • The airline's fleet consists entirely of modern fanjets.
    • We boarded a twin-engine fanjet for the transatlantic flight.
Advanced Usage
  • Technical Specification: The term is often used in technical and aviation contexts to specify engine type, contrasting with "turbojet" or "turboprop."
    • The new model will be equipped with the latest high-thrust fanjets.
Variants and Related Words
  • Fan-jet: An alternative hyphenated spelling.
  • Turbofan: The more common technical synonym for the engine type.
  • Bypass engine: A descriptive term highlighting the key design feature.
  • Jetliner / Airliner: General terms for passenger aircraft, which are typically powered by fanjets.
Synonyms
  • Turbofan (n): The direct and most common synonym, especially in engineering.
  • Bypass engine (n): A descriptive synonym focusing on the airflow design.
Related Phrases
  • Fanjet engine: The full compound term specifying the propulsion system.
    • The development of the fanjet engine revolutionized commercial air travel.
