What Is Exhaust Turbocharger

Exhaust turbocharger is actually an air compressor that increases air intake through compressed air. It uses the inertial impulse of exhaust gas from the engine to push the turbine in the turbine chamber, the turbine drives the coaxial impeller, the impeller compressed the air from the air filter pipe to pressurize it into the cylinder. The increased air pressure and density entering the cylinder can burn more fuel, accordingly increase fuel amount and adjust engine speed, which can increase the output power of the engine. Turbochargers are based on the principle of forced induction. It is the process of forcing compressed air into the intake for combustion. PARTS OF TURBOCHARGERS A Turbocharger consists of - 1.) COMPRESSOR HOUSING 2.) COMPRESSOR WHEEL 3.) BEARING 4.) OIL SEALS 5.) SHAFT 6.) TURBINE WHEEL 7.) TURBINE HOUSING The middle part whole part together is called a turbocharger cartridge. The compressor wheel and the turbine w...

Operation And Maintenance of Air Filter, Turbocharger and Starter

1. Operation and maintenance of air filter Warning! The service life of your engine may be shortened greatly due to wrong maintenance methods. 1. The  air filter  shall match the performance index of engine in a strict way; otherwise, the dynamic property and  economy performance of engine will be influenced. 2. If the air filter is provided with a warning device, the warning device shall be observed first before the natural  gas engine is started. When the intake resistance indicator give an alarm (turns red), the air filter element shall be  maintained. 3. The filter adopting multistage filtration technology must be provided with a coarse strainer. 4. When mounting the dust exhausting pipe, the pipe shall not be bend sharply and shall be free from air leakage. 5. Prevent water from entering into the air filter. 6. When maintaining an air filter with a safety filter element, do not disassemble the safety filter element. 7. In normal working con...
