 Advantages and Disadvantages

3. INTRODUCTION
Three possible methods utilized to increase the air
consumption of an engine are as follows:
 Increasing the piston displacement
 Running the engine at higher speeds
 Increasing the density of the charge

4. What is a Turbocharger ?
• A turbocharger is a turbine
driven compressor used to
supply compressed air to
the engine
• It utilizes the unused energy
present in exhaust gases

5. Parts of turbocharger
 Turbine
 Compressor
 Connecting shaft
 Bearings
 Manifold

8. What is a Supercharger
 A supercharger is an air
compressor that increases the
pressure or density of air
supplied to an internal
combustion engine.
 Power for the supercharger can
be provided mechanically by
means of a belt, gear, shaft, or
chain connected to the engine's
crankshaft.

14. Applications
 Trucks
 Heavy machines
 Aircrafts
 Vehicles moving at higher altitudes
 Locomotives

15. Advantages of Turbocharger
 Better performance of engine,
 Utilizing wasted energy in the exhaust gases.
 Increase in thermal efficiency and power of the engine.
 Eco-friendly.
 It acts also silencer and reduces the sounds from the
engine.
 Better fuel efficiency

16. Disadvantages
 Cost
 Installation
 Turbo lag
 Boost threshold
 Oil requirement

17. Advantages of Supercharger
 Increased horsepower.
 No lag
 Low RPM boost: good power at low RPM in comparison
with turbochargers.
 Price: cost effective way of increasing horsepower.

18. Disadvantages
 Less efficient
 More space
