Q
how does a turbo work on a diesel engine
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
A turbocharger on a diesel engine works by harnessing the engine's exhaust gases to drive a turbine. This turbine is connected to a compressor that forces more air, and consequently more oxygen, into the combustion chamber. With more oxygen available, the engine can burn the diesel fuel more efficiently and completely, resulting in a boost in power output, improved efficiency, and lower emissions. The process not only enhances performance but also contributes to fuel economy by allowing a smaller engine to produce the power of a much larger one without the fuel consumption penalty. Turbocharging is particularly effective in diesel engines due to their inherently high compression ratio and efficiency. The implementation of a turbocharger is a sophisticated way to get more power from the engine without significantly increasing its size or fuel consumption.
