4. TURBOCHARGER (Only in supercharged engines)
A turbocharger is a centrifuge air compressor driven by a turbine that utilises the energy of the exhaust gases. It
is an element of the air/fuel mixture system. The turbocharger delivers high-pressure air to the engine;
accordingly, the amount of air the piston can take is greater. This increase in the amount of air delivered allows
the engine to increase its level of combustion efficiency and power output.
Fig. 2 Turbocharger Section
In “L” engines, the turbocharger is mounted on the right side of the engine.
In “V” engines, the turbochargers are mounted on the right and left of the engine, over the exhaust manifolds.
In HGM engines, the turbocharger lies in the front end, in V engines above the top cover of the air cooler.
