1. Increase engine power output: Turbocharging technology increases the intake density, allowing more air to enter the cylinder. With the cooperation of the fuel supply system, more fuel can be injected to improve the engine's power and efficiency.
2. Improve engine emissions: Turbocharging technology helps reduce harmful emissions in exhaust gases, such as nitrogen oxides and particulate matter, thereby improving environmental quality.
3. Provide altitude compensation function: In high-altitude areas, due to the thin air, turbocharging technology can compensate for the impact of altitude on engine performance, ensuring that the engine can also work normally in high-altitude areas.
4. Improve fuel economy and reduce fuel consumption: By increasing intake density and turbocharging technology, fuel can be burned more fully, thereby improving fuel utilization and reducing fuel consumption.
Working principle of turbocharger for diesel generator set:
1. Exhaust gas enters the turbocharger: When the engine is running, the exhaust gas enters the turbocharger through the exhaust pipe.
2. Turbine impeller rotation: The energy of the exhaust gas is converted into kinetic energy by the turbine impeller in the turbocharger, which drives the impeller to rotate at high speed.
3. Compressed air generation: The rotation of the turbine wheel drives the compressor blades, compressing the air at the inlet and increasing the pressure.
4. Compressed air enters the engine: The turbocharger sends the compressed air into the engine's intake system to supply the oxygen required for combustion.
The development history and application status of diesel engine turbocharging technology:
Diesel engine turbocharging technology has been applied since the early 20th century and has become an important means of improving diesel engine performance after years of development. At present, turbocharging technology has been widely applied in various types of diesel engines, including ships, automobiles, engineering machinery, and other fields. With the advancement of technology, turbocharging technology is also constantly improving, such as the application of intercooler technology in turbocharging, which further enhances the efficiency and performance of diesel engines.
