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 learn about different functions of automobile chassis components. As we say Definition of chassis so let us know about it ,the name ‘ Chassis ’ is a French term that was initially used to denote the frame or main structure of the vehicle. The chassis frames includes all the major units that are necessary to propel the vehicle, guide its motion, stop it and allow it to run smoothly over uneven surfaces. Automobile chassis is the main mounting member for all the components including the body. And it is also known as the carrying unit. Functions of Chassis The functions of the chassis includes 1) Chassis carries the weight of the vehicle and its passengers, and goods in case of cargo vehicles 2) Withstanding the engine and transmission torque and thrust stresses, as well as accelerating and braking torque, 3) Withstanding the centrifugal force while taking a turn and 4) Withstanding the bending load and twisting due ...
