Gas turbine engines are, theoretically, extremely simple. They have three parts: Compressor- Compresses the incoming air to high pressure Combustion area- Burns the fuel and produces high-pressure, high-velocity gas Turbine- Extracts the energy from the high-pressure, high-velocity gas flowing from...
This fluid has a much higher inertia than air -- that is, it is harder to move (think of pushing air versus pushing water). The small force felt at the eardrum is not strong enough to move this fluid. Before the sound passes on to the inner ear, the total pressure (force per unit...
