2. Need of downsizing engines
Reduce co2 emissions
Reduce fuel consumption
Ways to increase power
Turbocharging
supercharging
3. Turbocharger
It is a centrifugal compressor driven by
exhaust gas of engine.
It produces high boost at high engine
speed.
Disadvantages
At low speed turbo lag occurs.
5. supercharger
It is mechanical air pump driven by
engine.
It produce good boost at low speed.
Disadvantages
At high speed some boost pressure is
wasted
7. What is variable supercharger?
It is a gearless fully variable pressure
charger.
It is driven by the electronically actuated
continuously variable transmission belt
and pulley.
9. Function of variable supercharger
It delivers right amount of boost at right
time.
At low speed it produces high boost.
At high speed work of engine is
conserved to produce correct amount of
boost pressure.
10. Control
The supercharger works with the signals
from electronic control unit.
Sensors used
1. MAP sensor
2. MAF sensor
3. O2 sensor
4. Throttle position sensor
5. CKP,CMP sensor
6. Accelerator pedal sensor
11. Advantages
It has both the advantages of
turbocharger and supercharger
High volumetric and thermal efficiency.
low emission.
Good working at all conditions
