Turbocharging, Scavenging & Fuel Injection
Inside this lesson
- Explain how a turbocharger raises intake-air density to allow more fuel per cycle
- Compute the charge-air density ratio from pressure and temperature ratios
- Describe why charge-air cooling (intercooling) further raises density
- Outline scavenging (uniflow/loop) and fuel-injection timing/atomisation
