Was the Turbocharger Originated in Japan?
1 Answers
Turbocharging technology was not invented by the Japanese. Here are the specific details: 1. Early Applications: Turbocharging technology was invented by some European engineers and was initially applied to aircraft engines. Aircraft engines at high altitudes experience insufficient air intake due to thin air, and turbocharging technology can solve this problem. 2. Turbocharging Principle: The principle of turbocharging is actually very simple. A turbocharger consists of two parts: a compressor turbine and an exhaust turbine. The exhaust turbine is connected to the exhaust manifold. When the engine reaches a certain speed, the exhaust has enough energy to drive the exhaust turbine to rotate, which in turn rotates the compressor turbine. As the compressor turbine spins, it compresses air and blows it into the cylinders, thereby increasing the amount of air entering the engine.
