    Is there any difference between an aircraft propulsion engine and a jet propulsion engine.

    well actually jet propulsion is a broader term and aircraft propulsion is only a part of it.

    jet propulsion include engines for aircraft, such as the turbofan, turbojet and turbo-prop engines.(this is air-craft propulsion).

    it also includes engines for missiles such as the ram-jet engine and pulse-jet engines.

    can we say that a propulsion system is better than an IC engine

    Both propulsion system n IC engine is far different in their respective working, so wat i believe is dat its really hard to say which one is better. Because both have there advantages n disadvantages as well in term of their working.

    Check the P-v diagrams of propulsion system and IC engine.. U can understand the difference.. If u cant find any diff.. both are same... Advantages talks about thermal and mechanical efficiencies..

    IC engines have a lot of moving parts. So can we say in terms of energy efficency, that propulsion is better

    well i think the turbo-prop engine has an equal number of moving parts.
