Types of Propulsion - Naval Architecture

A propeller is a rotating fan-like structure which is used to propel the ship by using the power generated and transmitted by the main engine of the ship.
The transmitted power is converted from rotational motion to generate a thrust which imparts momentum to the water, resulting in a force that acts on the ship and pushes it forward.
A ship propels on the basis of Bernoulli’s principle and Newton’s third law. A pressure difference is created on the forward and aft side of the blade and water is accelerated behind the blades.
The thrust from the propeller is transmitted to move the ship through a transmission system which consists of a rotational motion generated by the main engine crankshaft, intermediate shaft and its bearings, stern tube shaft and it’s bearing and finally by the propeller itself.

Wait. If water jet is similar to standard jet engines, does that mean, that I can increase the thrust of it, by mixing sodium with water, inside of the engine and making actual water jet engine?🤔
