What is the Difference Between Supercharging and Turbocharging?
1 Answers
Here are the specific differences between supercharged engines and turbocharged engines: 1. Structure: The supercharger has a simpler structure than the turbocharger. The higher the engine speed, the greater the boost pressure, and there is no turbo lag phenomenon associated with turbocharging. The turbocharger has a more complex structure and a higher failure rate compared to the supercharger. 2. Fuel consumption: The supercharger is driven by a belt, which consumes engine power, so it is not as fuel-efficient as the turbocharger. The turbocharger provides strong boost pressure, allowing even small-displacement engines to deliver powerful performance while also being more fuel-efficient.
