A combustion chamber is a space within an engine where fuel is mixed with oxygen and ignited. The energy released from the combustion is captured and harnessed.
The combustion chamber is also known as a burner or combustor. The resulting high-temperature exhaust gas is used to turn the power turbine, which produces mechanical work to move the compressor.
The combustion chamber can be divided into five major components: The injector assembly The grain compartment The aft mixing chamber The nozzle The thrust vector control
