What is the different between axial turbocharger and radial turbocharger?
An axial compressor uses many stages of "fans" with stators to compress air in the same direction as its original flow. An example of this is that of *most* turbojet engines' compressors. A radial (or centrifugal) compressor works at right angles to the airflow's original direction. An example of a radial compressor is the compressor on an automotive turbocharger.
What is a a turbocharger?
is a centrifugal compressor powered by a turbine which is driven by an engine's exhaust gases.
What is a blow off valve and how does it work?
The blow-off valve should not be confused with a waste-gate. The waste-gate is a device that by-passes the turbine wheel of the turbocharger, limiting the shaft-speed of the turbocharger. Therefore, limiting the boost (pressure) that the compressor generates and keeping the turbocharger from over-speeding. A blow-off valve is mounted in the intake plumbing between the turbocharger compressor and the throttle plate. The blow-off valve is a second safety measure against the turbocharger over-boosting and damaging the engine. The blow-off valve is more commonly used to keep the turbocharger spinning when the throttle plate is suddenly closed. When the turbocharger is generating maximum boost pressure at full throttle and then the throttle is suddenly closed, compressed air coming from the compressor slams against the throttle, generating extremely high pressures that travel backwards to the compressor stopping the compressor from spinning. When the throttle plate is again opened, the engine must spool the turbocharger shaft again. The effects of this high pressure can also be very damaging to the turbocharger.
What type of rotary compressor is used in air conditioners?
spring type rotary compressor
What are turbochargers and superchargers?
Turbo and superchargers are examples of heat turbines used to compress and pressurize intake air charges for higher power outputs. A turbocharger uses the heat energy from exhaust gases to drive its turbine. In comparison a supercharger uses the mechanical energy of the motor through the drive belt system to run its turbine. A supercharger produces parasitic power and fuel efficiency losses through this set-up. For these reasons a turbocharger has higher efficiency.
Which type of rotary compressor used in gas turbine?
Rotating axial compressor.
Why could a turbocharger be surging?
Compressor surge is when the air pressure after the compressor is actually higher than what the compressor itself can physically maintain. This condition causes the airflow in the compressor wheel to back up, build pressure, and sometimes stall. Common conditions that result in compressor surge on turbocharger gasoline engines are: * A compressor bypass valve is not integrated into the intake plumbing between the compressor outlet and throttle body * The outlet plumbing for the bypass valve is too small or restrictive * The turbo is too big for the application
Which type of compressor are used in aeroplanes?
Part of a turbine engine is the compressor. There are no others in aircraft.
What is meant by turbocharger and supercharger?
Using a compressor in the form a turbo or supercharger to force air into an engine to make more power.
What are the parts of turbocharger?
The parts of a turbo going from front to back are: Compressor housing, inside the housing is the compressor and that compresses the air. the compressor housing is attached to the main bearing housing/core, and on the backside is the exhaust turbine inside the exhaust housing.
What is the function of a bypass valve?
To prevent compressor surge, and reduce wear on the turbocharger and engine. Or in other words to prevent issues such as clogging from occurring on to reduce the issues on the turbocharger and engine.
What is a turbo resonator on a Dodge Sprinter?
The resonator is a "muffler" used in the turbocharger plumbing to quiet the turbo noise.The resonator is a "muffler" used in the turbocharger plumbing to quiet the turbo noise.
