Goal

Acquiring new knowledge on role and importance of turbocharging in IC Engines. Developing skills to calculate parameters of supercharging and match compressor/turbine to desired engine performance. Broadening knowledge of thermodynamics by studying compressor/turbine performance characteristics and processes occuring in intercooler. Broadening knowledge in machine design by studying specific issues of turbocharger design principles.

Outcome

Understanding the reality of Heat Engines working cycles and complexity of their design. Establishing the Cause & Effect relationship between working cycle and machine design. Capabilities to calculate parameters of IC Engine Supercharging, to make proper selection of Supercharging System components (compressor, turbine, intercooler, Waste-Gate). Abilities related to specific issues of laboratory testing of Supercharging System Components.
