Precautions for using turbocharger accessories
2022-08-09 13:43After starting the engine for a long time at high speed, the engine should not be
turned off immediately. When the engine is working, a part of the oil is supplied
to the turbocharger rotor bearings for lubrication and cooling. After running the
engine suddenly stop, oil pressure rapidly reduced to zero, the supercharger turbo
spread to middle part of the high temperature and bearing shell heat cannot take
away quickly, while the turbocharger rotor was still under the effect of inertia at
high speed, therefore, if all of a sudden stop, the engine heat engine condition
will cause the turbocharger stranded within the oil overheating and damage of
bearing and shaft. In particular, to prevent the sudden flameout after a few feet
of the throttle.
Remove the supercharger, to keep clean, each pipe joint must be plugged with a
clean cloth, to prevent debris into the supercharger, damage to the rotor. Attention
should be paid not to damage the impeller during maintenance. If the impeller
needs to be replaced, the dynamic balance test should be done. After reloading,
remove the plug.
Turbochargers have simple structure, do not consume the power of the engine itself,
and high boost value. These factors lead to the powerful advantages of turbocharging.
But the principle of turbocharging makes it a bigger risk: high temperatures. It is
this hidden danger that has delayed the introduction of turbocharging into the
civilian sector.
