This document summarizes recent trends in turbocharger technology. It discusses how turbochargers use exhaust gases to drive a turbine and compressor, which increases engine power by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. New developments include using twin turbochargers or compound double turbines/compressors for higher efficiency. Variable geometry turbochargers can adjust the exhaust flow to drive the turbine and increase volumetric efficiency, expansion ratio, and output power. In summary, turbochargers improve engine performance through forced induction, and recent innovations aim to further optimize efficiency.
