Gas turbines, also known as jet engines or combustion turbines, are a type of internal combustion engine that converts natural gas or other liquid fuels into mechanical energy. They operate on the principle of the Brayton cycle, which involves the following key stages: 1. **Air Intake**: Ambient air is drawn into the turbine. 2. **Compression**: The air is compressed to a higher pressure by a series of compressor blades, which increases its temperature.
