Turbocharged Vehicle Research Paper

For one, This car is a beast you can get this beast of an engine that is the 426 Hemi or you could get this straight six 145 and anything in between but still the car itself you could get this Skat-Pack on your Challenger and it would be basically a whole new car.

The smaller the turbocharger, the less lag is produced. When a supercharger is activated, there is absolutely no lag at all because it is connected directly to the crank. This means that superchargers are able to produce boost at very low levels of rpm, giving the engine more power the whole time the supercharger is running. This is very important for those people who drive the supercharged trucks that are heavier than most cars and are usually hauling heavy loads in the back of the truck or on a trailer.

After the use of the turbocharger they discovered a new problem. The compressed air was much hotter than normal air going into the engine. The reason was that when the air is compressed it puts pressure on all the atoms. This causes the atoms to hit each other, causing friction, and move even faster. These rapid movements cause a massive amount of heat. This excess heat caused less oxygen to get to the cylinders which means a loss of potential power. Our answer to this dilemma was the aftercooler.

As you drive, air rushes past your car. It hits the front of your car and the intake, and this cold air is forced to the engine. As a combination, the turbo and intake greatly improve power and speed.

Turbochargers are bolted on the exhaust headers using exhaust gasses to spin and spool an impellor in the turbo. This is efficiently using energy that would have been wasted. When the one impellor is being spun by the exhaust the other is sucks air in the engine making boost. Since the turbo is powered by the exhaust a lot of heat is made. You do not want that to go through your engine because this could cause the engine to overheat. To prevent overheating problems an intercooler is installed. The air travels through the intercooler during the proses the air is cooled. One limitation of turbo is turbo lag, because the turbo is driven by the exhaust it takes some time for the impellor to spool, but once it is spooled you can get full boost quickly. The advancements in turbochargers have made turbo a lot better

Contain 4 main components, Compressor housing, compressor wheel, Turbine housing, along with a turbine wheel. Exhaust gas enters the system through the compressor housing while the air flows over the compressor wheel it causes a chain reaction which results in a counterclockwise rotation of the turbine wheel. This rotation is the stage when exhaust gas turns to air pressure. The air pressure is returned to the engine through a waste-gated return hose/line. The pressurized air is then interchanged with combustible diesel fuel and ignited. The bigger the turbo charger is allows more mass air flow which results in more fuel being burned all this combined equals a greater amount of horsepower

The small block Chevrolet V-8 is the engine to get if you want to keep your options open. There are endless possibilities for carburation, exhaust, ignition, cooling, and transmission compatibility. These engines can generate anywhere from 150 horsepower to a stout 800 ponies with the help of nitrous oxide fuels. For the common enthusiast, an aluminum air intake and a four barrel carburetor combine to make the perfect upgrade. This is the path I took, increasing the horsepower of my 307 cubic inch V-8 from 200 to around 245. If oil is passing by the pistons into the firing chambers and being exhausted in the form of blue smoke, rebuilding the engine is a good idea. This process is not as difficult as it might seem, but there are many specialty tools required like an engine hoist, piston ring pliers, and a cylinder reamer. It is a good idea to have it done professionally if the tools are not readily available. I was lucky enough to have the garage space and tools to complete the job myself, but I would only recommend this if you have a lot of time to spend on your engine. The more time that is spent on the engine the better the project will be in the end.

It’ll have either a RB25 or a RB26 full engine swap. Then I’ll get 96.5 mm Wiseco pistons, M7960 25 max psi turbo, MAX super angle kit, Nexen n9000 tire series just because they have more grip and create a lot of smoke which I really like. Hopefully I’ll be good enough to go to pro drift events

There are turbos, superchargers, and naturally aspirated engines, naturally aspirated engines are engines will many cylinders like 8-12 cylinders. Naturally aspirated engines make a lot of power because they have a lot of liters and cylinders, but the price of car with 8 or more cylinders is costly and hard to work with. Parts for car with 8 cylinder, and up will be much more expensive because the part will be of a higher quality. Turbos spin at a very high speed and must spool before power is delivered to the wheels. Even though turbos take time to spool before the power is put down to the ground, they make the most power. Cars can be twin turboed which is better for performance because generally most high performance car will have one smaller turbo and one big one. The small turbo can spool quicker, and the bigger turbo take time to spool so the turbos help each other out by filling in the power gaps. Superchargers are almost the same as turbos because they spin at a very high speed but the power delivery from superchargers is instant. Superchargers are much bigger than turbos so that mean adding more than one supercharger to a high performance car can be difficult, that is why most people turbocharger their cars instead. After installing a supercharger or turbo there will be components that will need to be upgrades to handle the horsepower.

The same principle that allows an airplane to rise off the ground by creating lift from its wings is used in reverse to apply force that presses the race car against the surface of the track. This effect is referred to as "aerodynamic grip" and is distinguished from "mechanical grip," which is a function of the car mass repartition, tires and suspension. The creation of downforce by passive devices almost always can only be achieved at the cost of increased aerodynamic drag (or friction), and the optimum setup is almost always a compromise between the two. The aerodynamic setup for a car can vary considerably between race tracks, depending on the length of the straights and the types of corners; some drivers also make different choices on setup.

When NASA launched John Glenn into orbit aboard the capsule Friendship 7, many do not realize how much science and mathematics went into his successful launch and stay in space. From figuring out how much fuel you need to get into space, to figuring out which direction to burn it involved many numbers and calculations. As we enter a new dawn on space exploration, it has become relevant to all of us to understand how to maneuver in space.

The car I would love to have in my lifetime is a Hyper car. A hyper car with a world record breaking speed of 270.49 mph, that can go 0-60 in 2.7 seconds the Venom GT! This car has shattered about 4 hyper car world records. Just imagine having a car with an estimated top speed of 278 mph. Backed up with a 90 degree iron/aluminum block head, this car can ROAR! Did i mention it had 1625 horse power! That’s equivalent to 1,211,762.500 Watts!

Every morning I wake up to approach my car, I imagine like going to race. I open the car door, start the engine, and hear the exhaust as like it were a jet about to take off. I believe that Acura Tsx is most reliable luxury sedan car, Acura makes the look of Tsx is like a sport car but it’s a four door sedan and easily fits five people with its luxurious interior, trip tonic shifting transmission and smooth 4-cyl 2.4 vetch engine make’s the car 200 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque. That’s more power than other of the four-cylinders when I drive the car at normal speeds it feels like I push the gas and let the car fly away. The power and share beauty of this car is the same as riding a wild animal, but this is something you can control.

During the 1973 oil crisis, the big three automotive companies were ordered to slow down production, by the American government. The Pontiac Trans Am became the last of the high speed cars, the public liked the ’73 Trans Am, so Pontiac ignore the new government. The high output 455 bhp was the largest engine ever in an affordable compact pony car. Within months they made the modifications to meet with the new regulations which brought power down to 290 bhp. The Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 1973, had a production of 4,802, its body style two-door four-seater fastback, construction steel unitary body. It had a 455cid V8 engine, power output 250-310 bhp, transmission four-speed manual or three speed turbo hydra-matic automatic, with front coil spring rear leaf springs with live axle suspension, front discs rear drum brakes. It went 0-60 in 5.4 seconds. And had a max speed of 135 mph. (Willson, 483) I picked this car because it’s a modern sports car, also if you look at it from the front it looks like a Mustang and if you look at the back it looks like a

That covers the basic function of an engine fron intake to exhaust. Next we will explore the relationship of Horsepower vs Torque.
