Abstract
A comparison of the heat engines raises the question of the criteria for the propulsion principle for the respective application. Gas turbines have been established in many applications, even in applications in which the gas turbines can only achieve low efficiencies. In some other applications the reciprocating engines are the preferred propulsion principle. In an overview the ranges of power output, pressure ratio and efficiency are shown for the gas turbines in electrical power generation, marine and aviation gas turbines. The power output of jet engines will be estimated numerically from the static thrust and the air mass flow on the example of the turbofan General Electric GE90-115B used in the airliner Boeing 777-300ER.
