Turbocharger Question Answer

1. How do will know that turbine side nozzle got chocked ?
Ans. Rpm of the turbocharger will get reduced.

2. Which type of turbine is of turbocharger has ?
A. Impulse type
B. Reaction type 
Ans. A ( it has got single stage  impulse type turbine )

3. How do will reduce the vibration of turbocharger?
Ans . Use of Lacing wire .

4. What is K mark of turbocharger?
Ans. It is the distance between the compressor side shaft and the bearing cover.
It is given at the bearing cover of compressor side.( 21.7 mm generally for the smaller one)

5.How to clean the rotor side of compressor ?
Ans. With the help of soap solution .
[ Don't use any chemical and steam etc. because it is of aluminium having melting temperature of 200℃.]

6. What is the material of rotor blade of turbine side and blade of compressor side ?
Ans. Nickel Chrome Alloy (Nimonic Alloy) of turbine blade and Aluminium alloy or expensive titanium of compressor side blades.

7. What is the purpose of fixed vanes on compressor side ?
Ans . To give the direction to the air .

8. What is the purpose of nozzle ring of the turbine side?
Ans. It changes the pressure energy into kinetic energy by increasing the velocity of exhaust gas .

9. What is the purpose of volute casing or Diffuser casing of compressor side ?
Ans. It increases the pressure of compressed air.

10. What is approximate rpm of Turbocharger?
Ans. Around 15000.

Wire drawing effect

Wire drawing effect : It is erosion or scoring of valve seat and disc material of the valve . Causes : 1. Due to differential pressure across the valve . 2. Thermal and mechanical damages . Effects : Valve is unable to isolate the line and fails in sealing . Gas and liquid will leak from the wire and scratch like groove .

Cross and loop scavenging Disadvantage

Cross scavenging Disadvantage 1. It requires longer  piston skirt to prevent exhaust gas and air leaks from the ports when piston is at TDC . Loop scavenging Disadvantage 1. Both exhaust port and scavenge port are at the adjacent side of the liner which causes temperature differential problem for the liner material . Hence , we are using mostly the uniflow scavenging which is having very lesser mixing and better scavenging efficiency. Source : DA Taylor
