What is Turbocharger | Turbocharger function & Principle

TURBOCHARGER Turbocharger is a mechanical device which increases the horse power, efficiency and speed of a vehicle. It's main objective is to provide the maximum amount of air to the cylinder of the engine. So that it can burn more fuel at each second at the faster rate which was wasted due to lag of oxygen, when a turbo is used to exceed the pressure is called turbocharging. it was invented by alferd j.buchi (1879 - 1959)in 1905, an automotive engineer. It was design to reduce the size the of engine. Before we go to turbocharger let discuss The basic of engine it comprises of four strokes diesel engine it will help you to understand. Why diesel engine only ? Because turbocharger are mainly placed in diesel engine to increases the volumetric efficiency of a combustion chamber and to increases the air inlet pressure produced by the exhaust gas. four strokes are given below: suction strokes (air intakes) compression stroke (air gets started ...
