turbofan engine

Japanese: turbofan engine(英語表記)turbofanengine
turbofan engine

...In the case of turbojet engines, the propulsive efficiency is good during supersonic flight because V j is large, but the propulsive efficiency decreases during high subsonic flight because V j becomes too large compared to V.
[Turbofan engine]
In order to improve the above-mentioned shortcomings of turbojet engines, the jet velocity of the jet is reduced to create the turbofan engine (Figure 2). The combustion gas leaving the compressor-driving turbine is directed to another turbine, where part of the energy is converted into shaft power, reducing the jet velocity by that amount, and the resulting shaft power is used to drive the fan, which is a large-diameter, high-flow axial-flow compressor.

Japanese:

…ターボジェットエンジンの場合,Vjが大きいため超音速飛行での推進効率はよいが,高亜音速飛行時にはVに比べVjが過大となって推進効率が低下するという短所がある。
[ターボファンエンジンturbofan engine]
 ターボジェットエンジンのもつ上述のような短所を改善するため,噴出するジェットの速度を低くしたものがターボファンエンジンである(図2)。圧縮機駆動用タービンを出た燃焼ガスを,さらに別のタービンに導いてエネルギーの一部を軸動力にかえ,その分だけジェットの噴出速度を減らすとともに,得られた軸動力で大口径大流量軸流圧縮機であるファンを駆動する。…
