Q
how does nos work in an engine
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Nitrous Oxide System (NOS) enhances an engine's performance by allowing more fuel to burn. When NOS is injected into the engine, it decompresses and cools the intake air significantly. This cooling effect allows the air-fuel mixture to be denser, enabling more oxygen to enter the combustion chamber. As nitrous oxide itself breaks down at high temperatures (above 570°F/299°C), it releases additional oxygen, further supporting combustion. The result is a significant increase in horsepower because the engine can burn more fuel per engine cycle. However, the system must be used judicially as the additional power can strain engine components. It's popular in racing for its ability to provide a quick and powerful boost but requires careful management and consideration of the engine's capacity to handle increased stresses.
