Working Principle Of Turbine

Turbocharging is abbreviated as TURBO. If TURBO or T is seen at the rear of a car, it indicates that the engine used in the car is a turbocharged engine. For example, Volkswagen Bora's 1.8T, Passat's 1.8T, Audi's 2.0T, and so on. The engines of these cars work by burning fuel in the engine cylinders, thereby outputting power to the outside world. When the engine displacement is constant, the most effective way to increase the output power of the engine is to provide more fuel for combustion. However, it is easy to provide more fuel to the cylinder, but it is difficult to achieve this by relying on traditional engine intake systems to provide sufficient air to support complete fuel combustion.
Taking the working principle of a gasoline engine as an example, for each kilogram of gasoline supplied to the cylinder, approximately 15 kilograms of air need to be sucked in by the cylinder to ensure full combustion of the gasoline. However, the volume of these 15 kilograms of air will be very large, and relying solely on the vacuum generated by the cylinder during the engine intake process, it is not easy to completely suck in such a large volume of air. Therefore, it is particularly important to improve the engine's ability to absorb gas, which is to improve the engine's inflation efficiency. Supercharging technology is a method of improving the intake capacity of an engine. In principle, it uses a specialized compressor to pre compress the gas before entering the cylinder, increasing the density of the gas entering the cylinder and reducing the volume of the gas. In this way, the mass of the gas per unit volume is greatly increased, and the intake volume can meet the combustion needs of the fuel, thereby achieving the goal of increasing engine power. The compressor used during the turbocharging process is also called a turbocharger.
