What is Turbocharging?
1 Answers
Turbocharging is a technology where the exhaust gases from a car do not directly discharge into the atmosphere. Instead, the exhaust gases drive the turbocharger, which pressurizes the intake air, thereby improving intake efficiency. As the engine speed increases, the exhaust gas discharge speed and the turbocharger's rotational speed also increase simultaneously, enhancing the degree of air compression. Consequently, the engine's air intake volume increases accordingly, leading to an increase in the engine's output power. Precautions for using turbocharging include: 1. Turbocharged engines must use high-performance, heat-resistant engine oil; 2. Turbocharged vehicles are equipped with oil coolers and intake system cooling devices to reduce the temperature of the turbocharger, and the radiator and thermostat should also be appropriately enlarged; 3. Do not shut down the engine immediately.
