What is the working principle of an automotive turbocharger?
1 Answers
Automotive turbocharger works by converting the power generated from exhaust gases into intake pressure. There are fan blades in both the exhaust and intake pipes. When the engine operates and produces exhaust gases, the blades in the exhaust pipe rotate, thereby increasing the intake pressure. As the throttle is pressed harder, exhaust increases, and the intake increases correspondingly with the exhaust. The maintenance methods for a turbocharger include: 1. After starting the car engine, do not abruptly press the accelerator pedal; 2. Do not immediately turn off the engine after prolonged high-speed operation; 3. Choose the appropriate engine oil; 4. Regularly clean the engine oil and filter; 5. Clean the air filter on time; 6. Periodically check the sealing rings of the turbocharger; 7. Regularly clean the air filter; 8. Periodically inspect the lubrication oil pipes and joints.
