because the air flow of the planes prevent the jet engine from melting.. that's my guess

Melting point at NORMAL PRESSURE. So my guessing is something to do with controlled pressure

i think its the timezones, thats why they dont melt

the side flow air does much of the work, most of the air the fan sucks in is used for this

the turbine blades have loads of internal cooling channels that cools the blade internally and externally !! they are so complicated to manufacture that its an industrial secret

They use special materials from Park Aerospace to keep temps down

Definitely not tat temperature melting point of tungsten is around 1500 degrees .

The answer is air cooling. Whether it’s film, impingement, convection/conduction, or transpiration cooling

it is a combination of specialist thermal coatings and cooling air creating air films across the solid surfaces.
