 Afterburner (engine) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When the afterburner is turned on, fuel is injected, which ignites readily, owing to the relatively high temperature of the incoming gases.
Due to their high fuel consumption, afterburners are not used for extended periods (a notable exception is the Pratt and Whitney J58 engine used in the SR-71 Blackbird).
Since the afterburning exit temperature is effectively fixed, the temperature rise across the unit increases, raising the afterburner fuel flow.

An afterburner is an additional component added to some jet engines,primarily those on military aircraft.
One should note that since the exhaust gas already has reduced oxygen due toprevious combusion, and since the fuel is not burning in a highly compressed air column, it is quite inefficient.
Afterburners doproduce markedly enhanced thrust as well as (typically) a very large, impressive flame at the back of the engine.

The idea behind an afterburner is to inject fuel directly into the exhaust stream and burn it using this remaining oxygen.
An afterburner is nothing but a set of fuel injectors, a tube and flame holder that the fuel burns in, and an adjustable nozzle.
The disadvantage of an afterburner is that it uses a lot of fuel for the power it generates.

 Jet engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Forty years ago there was little difference between civil and military jet engines, apart from the use of afterburning in some (supersonic) applications.
However, afterburning engines require a variable area nozzle, to maintain sensible engine matching when the afterburner is alight.
This is usually accommodated by using a series of interlocking petals (driven by pneumatic or hydraulic rams) to adjust the throat area.

In the JA37 version, power is provided by a single Svenska Flygmotor RM8B turbofan - essentially a licence-built version of the same Pratt & Whitney JT8D that powered commercial airliners of the '60s like the DC-9 and the 727 but with an afterburner.
Only Viggen and the Panavia Tornado carry both afterburners and thrust-reversers.
Viggen featured a navigational computer, the Datasaab CK37 which by Swedish means was a significant technological achievement at that time.
