Introduction In the world of internal combustion engines, turbochargers have become a popular method of increasing power and efficiency. This gas compressor, often referred to simply as a turbo, is a form of forced induction that forces air into the engine, resulting in more power for a given displacement. In this blog, we will explore the inner workings of turbochargers and their impact on engine performance. The Components of a Turbocharger At its most basic level, a turbocharger consists of three major components: the turbine, the compressor, and the bearing system that supports the turbine shaft connecting the turbine and compressor wheels. The turbine is located on the hot side of the turbocharger and is bolted onto the engine's exhaust manifold. As the engine runs, the exhaust gases pass through the turbine, spinning a fan called the turbine wheel. This spinning motion converts heat and pressure into rotational force, which in turn spins the compressor whee...
Welcome to Explore Automotive, In this blog we will see the composite materials in details like what is Composite Materials? How Composite Materials classified? And many more problems which arises in our mind regarding composite materials, here I try to solve and answer the questions in this topic. (Image source : LamboCARS ) The development of composite materials as well as the related design and manufacturing technologies is one of the most important advances in the history of materials. Composites are multifunctional materials having unprecedented mechanical and physical properties which can be tailored to meet the requirements of a particular application. Many composites also exhibit great resistance to wear, corrosion, and high-temperature exposure. These unique characteristics which are helping to provide the mechanical engineer with the design opportunities which is not possible with the conventional monolithic (unreinforced) m...
