WHAT DOES BYPASS RATIO MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Bypass ratio

The bypass ratio of a turbofan engine is the ratio between the mass flow rate of air drawn through the fan disk that bypasses the engine core to the mass flow rate passing through the engine core that is involved in combustion to produce mechanical energy. For example, a 10:1 bypass ratio implies that 10 kg of air passes around the combustion chamber through the ducted fan for every 1 kg of air passing through the combustion chamber. The ducted fan, rather than combustion gases expanding in a nozzle, produces the vast majority of the thrust in high-bypass designs. A high bypass ratio provides a lower thrust specific fuel consumption for reasons explained below, especially at zero velocity and at the cruise speed of most commercial jet aircraft; however, the lower exhaust velocities of high-bypass designs also figure strongly in lower noise output, which is a decided advantage over earlier low or zero bypass designs. High bypass designs are by far the dominant type for all commercial passenger aircraft and both civilian and military jet transports.

Definition of bypass ratio in the English dictionary

The definition of bypass ratio in the dictionary is the ratio of the amount of air that bypasses the combustion chambers of an aircraft gas turbine to that passing through them.
