turbocharging ppt
When people talk about race cars or
high-performance sports cars, the topic of turbochargers usually comes up. Turbochargers also
appear on large diesel engines. A turbo can significantly boost an engine's
horsepower without significantly increasing its weight, which is the huge
benefit that makes turbos so popular!
In this article, we'll learn how a
turbocharger increases the power output of an engine while surviving extreme
operating conditions. We'll also learn how wastegates, ceramic turbine blades
and ball bearings help turbochargers do their job even
better. Turbochargers are a type of forced induction system. They compress the
air flowing into the engine (see How Car Engines Work for a description of airflow in a
normal engine). The advantage of compressing the air is that it lets the engine
squeeze more air into a cylinder, and more air means that more fuel can be
added. Therefore, you get more power from each explosion in each cylinder. A
turbocharged engine produces more power overall than the same engine without
the charging. This can significantly improve the power-to-weight ratio for the
engine (see How
Horsepower Works for
details).
In order to achieve this boost, the
turbocharger uses the exhaust flow from the engine to spin a turbine, which in turn spins an air pump. The turbine in the turbocharger spins at
speeds of up to 150,000 rotations per minute (rpm) -- that's about 30 times
faster than most car engines can go. And since it is hooked up to the exhaust,
the temperatures in the turbine are also very high.
Keep reading to find out how much
more power you can expect from your engine if you add a turbocharger.
