reheat is a thermodynamics term. Its not limited to aircraft engines. Afterburner is a form of reheat which is used in aircraft engines.

If your talking about aircraft engines both are correct. And septic engineers know very well what they are and how one is shall we say the family name for a solution and the other is a individual solution for the effect.
