Today is the anniversary of the RAF's first jet engine, designed and developed by Frank Whittle. In the 80 years since his invention things have come a long way and the jet now propels the majority of the RAF's aircraft. In this Tech Talk from Royal Air Force Cosford we see how the jet engine works, and how the "afterburner" or "reheat" system made famous by various Hollywood movies works. | Royal Air Force

The F-16’s afterburner works by injecting extra fuel into the exhaust stream after the gases have already passed through the turbine, creating a second stage of combustion that greatly increases thrust. First, the engine compresses incoming air, burns it in the main combustion chamber, and uses the energy to drive the turbine. The hot, fast exhaust then flows into the afterburner section, which contains flame holders—metal structures that help keep a stable flame in the high-speed airflow. When
