In an internal combustion engine, a supercharger compresses the intake gas, forcing more air into the engine in order to produce more power for a given displacement. The current categorization is that a supercharger is a form of forced induction that is mechanically powered (usually by a belt from the engine's crankshaft ), as opposed to a ...
The result is air that is highly pressurized, but that travels at low speed. [8] The high-pressure, low-speed air is then fed into the engine, where the additional pressure gives the engine the ability to burn more fuel and have a higher level of combustion. This results in a faster, more responsive vehicle due to greater engine volumetric ...
An electric supercharger is a specific type of supercharger for internal combustion engines that uses an electrically powered forced-air system that contains an electric motor to pressurize the intake air. By pressurizing the air available to the engine intake system, the air becomes more dense, and is matched with more fuel, producing the ...
U.S. patent 4,563,997, Figure 1: Pressure wave supercharger. A pressure wave supercharger (also known as a wave rotor [1]) is a type of supercharger technology that harnesses the pressure waves produced by an internal combustion engine exhaust gas pulses to compress the intake air.
Every once in a while a product comes along that sounds too good to be true. The Mophie Go Air Jumpstarter, Portable Charger and Air Compressor is that product. (Spoiler alert, FYI: It is true ...
Air is confined between the two spirals and is compressed as it is forced towards the centre. In automotive application, the spirals would have far fewer turns. The scroll-type supercharger is a scroll compressor used as a positive displacement orbiting-spiral supercharger .
The company just revealed that it has invented a device that wirelessly charges your devices over the air. What Xiaomi has claimed to achieve is long-distance wireless charging.
An animation of the operation of a scroll-type supercharger. Air is confined between the two spirals and is compressed as it is forced towards the centre. In automotive application, the spirals would have far fewer turns. The G-Lader is a scroll-type supercharger used in various Volkswagen Passenger Cars models.
