What is function of Inter cooler air compressor and if intercooler is not there what effect on air compressor performance?

The intercooler line on an air compressor transfers and cools the air that is compressed in one cylinder (low pressure) to the second cylinder (high pressure) on a two stage pump. An air compressor pump without an intercooler line would, not work at all unless properly re-plumbed, and, at best, offer the compressed air from the low pressure piston at about 70psi. and nothing from the second piston unless it too was re-plumbed to offer an additional flow at 70psi.

How does inter cooler enhance TDI engine performance?
An intercooler cooles the charged air coming out of the compressor side of the turbo. When that air is cooled it becomes denser. The dense air then makes a bigger explosion in the combustion chamber thus causing more power.
How do you change intercooler on a touran?
you need to take off front bumper, grill, front bar and then separate intercooler from airconditioning cooler.
How do you drain inter cooler in eagle talon?
there shouldn't be any fluid in your intercooler its just for air
What is the purpose of an intercooler in an air compressor?
Intercoolers lower the temperature of air going from one stage of a compressor to another, it increases the efficiency as the air becomes more dense. As the recieving stage is compressing cooler air as result, there is less heat produced in the succeding stage. If the intercooler has a large surface area, the temperature can approach ambient temperatures, and moisture my drop out, requiring a method for it's removal; if not a slug of water could damage the recieving stage. Efficiency increases can be had >15%
On a Dodge ram 3500 with Cummins turbo diesel engine what is the thing in front of the radiator?
Air conditioning condenser. Right in front of the radiator is the Intercooler and then in front of the intercooler is the air conditioner condenser. Could also be a trans cooler, a power steering cooler... a bumper....
Why is after cooler is used in diesel engines?
An time air is compressed it heats up,cooler air makes more power. An intercooler/aftercooler reduces the heat build up.
How does an after-cooler on a turbocharged diesel engine work?
If you are talking about an intercooler (never heard of an after cooler) the hot exhaust coming out of the cylinders is cycles through the intercooling to cool the exhaust before its cycled through the turbo.
Can you have a turbo in your car without intercooler?
yes but your air intake temp will be hotter, which will cause pinging ( detonation) this will damage the pistons and cylinders. to stop pinging you must lower the boost pressure and retard the timing.this will cause a major loss off power. if you are set you are not going to use a intercooler,you can try a water injection system this will help with detonation.if you want real performance a i/cooler is advised.more boost = more hp
What is function of after cooler air compressor?
The compressed air discharged from an air compressor is hot (fig. AC1-1). Compressed air at these temperatures contains large quantities of water in vapor form. As the compressed air cools this water vapor condenses into a liquid form
How does a after-cooler on a turbocharged diesel engine work?
After cooler and intercooler are the same thing, The intake air is heated after being compressed by the turbo. The after-cooler removes most of that heat, increasing it's density and doing so increases HP and the amount of boost you are able to run.

OK then call the dealer.
