It does it by forcing more air/fuel into the cylinder than would be possible normally aspirated. This increases the cylinder pressure when it is ignited, for a longer/ stronger push on the piston increasing the engine's torque.

Is turbocharging possible in petrol engines?

Absolutely! Turbocharging gasoline engines is a great way to make more power or better fuel economy, depending on the way the turbo is setup.


Where did turbocharging come from?

Turbocharging originated in the early 1900s, with its first patent filed by Swiss engineer Alfred Büchi in 1905. The technology was initially developed to improve the efficiency and power output of internal combustion engines, particularly in aviation and later in automotive applications. Over the decades, it gained popularity in racing and commercial vehicles, significantly enhancing engine performance while maintaining fuel efficiency. Today, turbocharging is widely used in various vehicles to meet power and emissions requirements.

Metal used to make jet engines?

Shot peened cast alimunum more than likely. Or cast iron to hold up to the higher rpms/pressure/turbocharging.


Can you turbo a 1.6 petrol focus zetec se?

Yep you sure can, a company called van aaken produce a turbocharging kit for that engine. Its a bit dodgy though, and you would be much better off swapping for a 2.0 litre zetec, and then turbocharging that. Or you can pick up zetec turbo engines relatively cheap off of eBay.


How does information technology help in increasing efficiency in economy?

Information technology helps with increasing efficiency in the economy because it improves on efficiency of jobs and money relocation.


Which type engine offers the highest propulsive efficiency?

Electric engines typically offer the highest propulsive efficiency compared to other types of engines, such as internal combustion engines or gas turbines. This is because electric engines can convert a higher percentage of their energy input into useful work, resulting in better overall efficiency.

What is the efficiency of wankel engine when compared to conventional engine?

the efficiency of the wankel engines is 38 % as compared to the inline or v line engines which holds only 21%.... I don't know where that guy got that information from, but it's pretty wrong if he's talking about fuel efficiency. Wankel engines are quite poor in efficiency, but when compared to inline engines that offer the same performance (powerful V8s) they will have similar fuel efficiencies.

What is the significance of the Carnot COP in the efficiency of heat engines?

The Carnot COP is significant in the efficiency of heat engines because it represents the maximum possible efficiency that a heat engine can achieve. It serves as a benchmark for comparing the performance of real-world heat engines, helping engineers to design more efficient systems.
