  2. Turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbocharger

    [28] [29] Some turbocharger designs are available with multiple turbine housing options, allowing a housing to be selected to best suit the engine's characteristics and the performance requirements. A turbocharger's performance is closely tied to its size, [30] and the relative sizes of the turbine wheel and the compressor wheel. Large turbines ...

  3. Supercharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercharger

    However, up until the mid-20th century, a turbocharger was called a "turbosupercharger" and was considered a type of supercharger. [2] The first supercharged engine was built in 1878, [3] with usage in aircraft engines beginning in the 1910s and usage in car engines beginning in the 1920s. In piston engines used by aircraft, supercharging was ...

  4. Mercedes-Benz M271 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_M271_engine

    This is the last version of M271 engine family. Dimensions are the same as E18 ML and DE18 ML, but the supercharger has been replaced with a turbocharger; like the DE18 ML it uses the CGI (Stratified Charged Gasoline Injection) gasoline direct injection. Output ranges from 156 PS (115 kW; 154 hp) at 5200 rpm to 204 PS (150 kW; 201 hp) at 5500 rpm.

  5. Kompressor (Mercedes-Benz) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kompressor_(Mercedes-Benz)

    The engine is a special version of the 3.2 L (3199 cc) M112 E32, fitted with a helical twin-screw supercharger and water-to-air intercooler. The supercharger was developed in conjunction with IHI and features Teflon-coated rotors producing overall boost of 14.5 psi (1 bar). Compared to the standard M112 engine, the AMG version also has a new ...

  6. Twincharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twincharger

    A mechanically driven supercharger offers exceptional response and low-rpm performance, as it does not rely on pressurization of the exhaust manifold (assuming that it is a positive-displacement design, such as a Roots-type or twin-screw, as opposed to a centrifugal supercharger, which does not provide substantial boost in the lower rpm range), but is less efficient than a turbocharger due to ...

  7. Centrifugal-type supercharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal-type_supercharger

    The centrifugal supercharger draws its power from the movement of the drive where it is attached. At this point, the supercharger powers an impeller – or small rotating wheel. The impeller draws air into a small compressor housing (volute) and centrifugal force sends the air into the diffuser.

  8. Turbo-compound engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo-compound_engine

    A turbo-compound engine is a reciprocating engine that employs a turbine to recover energy from the exhaust gases. Instead of using that energy to drive a turbocharger as found in many high-power aircraft engines , the energy is instead sent to the output shaft to increase the total power delivered by the engine.

  9. Nissan HR engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_HR_engine

    The HR12DDV is a 1.2 L (1,199 cc) all-aluminium direct injected and variable geometry turbocharged straight-three engine 48V mHEV equipped with lifetime timing chain, 12v DOHC, VVT, variable displacement oil pump, electric driven water pump, with Bore Spray Coating, Stop-Start, and regenerative braking, Bore and stroke are 75.5 and 89.3 mm (2. ...
