摘要:Turbochargers are the fastest and easiest way for an engine to increase its power. It increases engine’spower up to 40% without any increase in the physical size of the engine and much extra weight. Turbochargers are alsoefficient in design because it utilizes the iste exhaust of the engine to power itself. A Turbocharger is a device that usesthe energy of exhaust gases coming out from an engine to compress the air going into the engine. It must have at leastfour openings one for the engine exhaust gas to enter, second for the exhaust gas to exit, third is opening for intake airto enter the turbocharger, and fourth for the intake air to exit the turbocharger on its way to the engine intake. Aturbocharger will also have one additional opening to vent excess air pressure. The project mainly deals with twoimportant objectives firstly design of turbocharger in CATIA and finding out the critical thermal stresses in turbinehousing of a turbocharger under thermo-mechanical loading using ANSYS. Secondly, to find out the Thermo-Mechanical fatigue life at different places of a turbocharger and finally computing the results.
