The conduit that feeds a turbocharger, is extremely restrictive. Experimentally, determined that 4 psi is lost in this piece of plumbing, that connects the ambient supply to the compressor.
My question is, what would the temperature change be? Assume ambient of 100 F, at sea level. Is there...
I am taking a Zytel part, and modifying it for prototyping. It will involve build up and maching of part of the piece, similar to using fiberglass and resin. I need something that will bond to the nylon.
Can I get some ideas on what materials/process to use?

Presently have a turbo that is run off the right side of the map, NE side of the map to be precise. It runs into very low efficiency numbers, and the boatload of heat it is crating is problemeatic. GT40 compressor, with inlet temps of 220F, higher elevations, trying to push 50 lb/min, at 25-29...
Turbo-diesel application. Under augmented boost, around 34 psi at discharge, I am experiencing severe loss in compressor efficiency. Discharge temps right at 600 F. Calculated around 60% efficiency.
Part of the problem is that IAT is caught up in a thermal feedback loop, and can rise as high...
In a turbocharged, aftercooled application, is there more than one type of pressure drop?
Does a pressure drop occur across a charge air cooler as a result of the charge cooling/constant volume argument? The charge performs no work.
I am aware of the more commonly referred to frictional...
Referencing a typical centrifugal compressor used in an automobile turbo application:
1. What atmospheric conditions is the MAP based based on? Standard Day?
2. What would be the effect on the map with a departure from this temperature, eg 160 *F (620 *R) CIT? Does the whole map translate...
Air at 1000 CFM 80 degrees, sea level, enters a turbocharger for compression. Exits the compressor at 500 F, 32 psig, enroute to the CAC.
What is the air pressure loss for 4 feet (one sweep 90) of:
1.75" id pipe
2.5" id pipe
Thanks all.
This is a turbo-charger problem.
Wanting to inject water into the compressor to reduce compressed air temps. The turbo compresses ambient by 20 (34 absolute) psi, to 450 degrees. My question, is what charts do I use for this compressed product?
Entry conditions: 100 degree ambient air, 10%...
