The piston engines were used to rotate the fans at high speeds which provide the thrust for the aircraft to move forward. Since the thrust that could be developed by the piston engine is limited‚ they cannot be used in aircrafts that need high speed and thrust. Hence‚ piston engines are mostly restricted to training flights and slow flights. There were many modifications like the supercharger that were added to the piston engine which provided extras thrust to the existing engines. The supercharger
