ANÁLISE DO AUMENTO DE EFICIÊNCIA DOS MOTORES DE COMBUSTÃO INTERNA SOBREALIMENTADOS

Abstract

In Brazil there are currently around 58,850,554 cars (Governo Federal, 2021), and car companies have become major powers since the popularization of these cars, as the number of vehicles increased by 1.2% from January to August 2021. (Federal Government. 2021), and for that to happen, it is always necessary to innovate and seek new technologies.

The combustion engines used in these cars use the combustion of a certain fuel together with the ambient air to transform the heat energy contained in it, into movement. With the modernization of these engines, always seeking more efficiency, turbochargers emerged, which are equipment that compress the air and manage to throw a greater amount of oxygen into the mixture with fuel. This work seeks to understand this technology and compare the efficiency of these engines

turbos in relation to naturally aspirated ones, since it is a technology where most

of automakers are adhering to it and promising greater efficiency and power, with a

Relatively minor engine.
