Supercharger and its working


Overview and need of a supercharger

Since the invention of the internal combustion engine, automotive engineers, speed junkies and racecar designers have been searching for ways to boost its power. One way to add power is to build a bigger engine. But bigger engines, which weigh more and cost more to build and maintain, are not always better.
Another way to add power is to make a normal-sized engine more efficient. You can accomplish this by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. More air means more fuel can be added, and more fuel means a bigger explosion and greater horsepower. Adding a supercharger is a great way to achieve forced air induction.

What is a Supercharger?

A supercharger is an air compressor used for forced induction of an internal combustion engine .

Supercharger



The greater mass flow-rate provides more oxygen to support combustion than would be available in a naturally-aspirated engine, which allows more fuel to be provided and more work to be done per cycle, increasing the power output of the engine.

Power for the unit can come mechanically by a belt, gear, shaft, or chain connected to the engine's crankshaft.

When power comes from an exhaust gas turbine a supercharger is known as a turbosupercharger - or more usually simply turbocharger - and common usage is to restrict the use of supercharger to mechanically driven units.

Types of Supercharger

There are two main types of superchargers defined according to the method of compression: positive displacement and dynamic compressors. The former deliver a fairly constant level of boost regardless of engine speed (RPM), whereas the latter deliver increasing boost with increasing engine speed.

thanks man

thers always something new isnt it
ive heard theres this new charger called hyper charger sumthing ill try n find it
 

gagan_singh

hardcore drifter
find it and post it up cause i dont really know much about superchargers so all most everything is new to me.
