How much heat do a turbocharger extract from exhaust gases in an ic engine?

Temperature drops about 200-300f at full throttle/underload as it masses through the turbo. Under light load/cruising it can dropas much as 500f before/after the turbine.

What is a a turbocharger?
is a centrifugal compressor powered by a turbine which is driven by an engine's exhaust gases.
Why supercharger are not used in ci engine?
now a days superchargers are replaced by the turbocharger. supercharger is taking drive from engine while turbocharger taking drive from exhaust gases.
What is the difference between a Turbocharger and a supercharger?
Simply put, a turbocharger uses the exhaust to spin a turbine thus compressing air which is then forced into the intake. A supercharger is driven off the engine crankshaft and forces air into the intake. They both do the same thing but the turbocharger uses the exhaust gases to compress air and the supercharger uses the engine's motion.
Can you generate power from car exhaust gases using a turbine?
That's basically what a turbocharger does.
What is the difference between egr or turbo?
EGR uses exhaust gases for decreasing the pollution levels. Here the exhaust gases are actually fed to the precombustion chamber or the ignition chamber. In a turbocharger, the energy of the exhaust gases is used for compressing the ambient air, and the exhaust gases are then released.
What is the difference between a super and turbo charger?
supercharger is belt/gear driven of the motor, the turbocharger is driven by exhaust gases from the exhaust.
What is the need of turbo charger?
Turbocharger is used to boost the air quantity in air fuel mixture with the help of exhaust gases coming from engine. Large amount of air fuel mixture helps to give more power output. So to increase power output of our engine we use a turbocharger.
Why to use turbocharger?
A turbocharger uses exhaust gases to drive a turbine which forces more air into the cylinders, allowing for more fuel to be burned per cycle, resulting in increased horsepower. Besides performance, a turbocharger can also be used in a low-displacement engine (e.g. 1.6L) to match the performance of a larger engine (e.g. 2.5L), resulting in better fuel efficiency for similar performance. In conclusion, a turbocharger improves performance and fuel efficiency.
Is every engine fit with turbocharger?
No. There are two types of charger to give the engine more air than it would be able to suck in naturally; a Supercharger and a Turbocharger. The supercharger is an electrically (usually) driven fan that compresses the air. A turbocharger does the same job, but it is driven by the flow of exhaust gases through a small turbine. Thus the turbocharger has a small lag time, for it depends upon engine speed for its performance. Whereas a supercharger is independent of the engine operation. Of course, many motors manage quite well without either accessory.
What is the difference between a pulse system and a constant pressure turbocharger?
Types of turbochargers Turbochargers are of two types and they are pulse and constant pressure type turbocharger. Pulse type turbocharger: In pulse type turbocharger, the exhaust gas directly enters the turbine side and drives the turbine with the exhaust gas energy. The connection from the exhaust side of an engine is directly connected to the turbine side of a turbo charger. The pipe connections from the exhaust gas towards the turbine side are generally small in length and exhaust grouping is provided to prevent the blowback of gases from one cylinder to another. Constant pressure type turbocharger: In constant pressure type turbocharger, the exhaust gases gets collected in a single exhaust gas reservoir, where the pressure is maintained constant so as to avoid any fluctuation in the exhaust gas energy pressure. The exhaust gas is introduced to the turbine side after maintaining the pressure inside the cylinder. Materials: Turbine and compressor blades: Steel or nickel alloy. Volute casing: cast iron Bearings: steel or gun metal.
What does a exhaust manifold do?
Routes exhaust gases out of engine bay
What spools the turbo in a diesel truck?
In a diesel and petrol vehicle the turbo turbine is spun via exhaust gases exiting from combustion from the engine. it takes a short amount of time for a turbo to produce boost because of the effect of waiting for combustion and exhaust gases to spin the exhaust turbine. but saying this the turbocharger creates no load on the engine, not like a supercharger which is belt driven off the crankshaft which means you have to give power to make power. two sides to the turbocharger featuring intake and exhaust. while exhaust gases spin the exhaust turbine, which is connected to the intake turbine it spins the intake side creating a vaccuum and compression of the intake air. so with more revs and more exhaust gas created it also increases boost or air intake at the same time.
