Chapter 25 Flashcards
Engineers calculate the engine air flow requirements using all the factors except
Engine power output.
An engine that uses atmospheric pressure for its intake charge is called an.
Naturally aspirated engine.
In a supercharged or turbo charged engine the boost pressure is measured inside the
Intake manifold
All the following conditions cause the airflow to be directed around a super charger. Except when.
The vehicle is accelerated to attain its maximum speed
engine is running at full power, the typical turbo charger rotates at speeds between.
100000 and 150000 rpm.
An engine exhaust driven air compressor, the supplies more than a normal amount of air into the intake manifold and boosts, engine torque and power is called.
Turbo charger
Which of the following is a similarity between turbochargers and superchargers
both turbochargers and superchargers are designed to provide a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure in the intake manifold.
A blank is a bypass valve at the exhaust inlet to a turbine, which allows all the exhaust into the turbine or it can route part of the exhaust past the turbine to the exhaust system.
Wastegate valve.
Which of the following gases is typically used for racing or high performance only and is not used from the factory on any vehicle.
Nitrous oxide
Phosphorus pentoxide is a good power adder
false
Naturally aspirated engines. With throttle plates use atmospheric pressure to push an air fuel mixture into the combustion chamber vacuum.
true
it is the ratio of the actual volume of air fuel mixture drawn into an engine to the theoretical maximum volume that can be drawn in.
volumetric efficiency
The amount of force in air-fuel charge produces when it is ignited is largely a function of the charge density.
Forced induction
Superchargers are engine driven air pump, whereas turbochargers are powered by hot exhaust gases.
True
Technician. A stated that a root type supercharger is not a positive displacement pump.
False
