Abstract:The association of turbochargers with piston engines is widespread since both the efficiency and the power output of an engine could be improved. However, a piston engine operational range is wide and highly variable. This characteristic imposes challenges for the project and application of a turbocharger that should perform properly within the operational range. An important tool used to evaluate the performance of both turbine and compressor, which compose a turbocharger, is the characteristic map. The map c… Show more
