    Bentley Mulsanne Turbo and Turbo R Turbocharging System Extracts from Workshop Manuals TSD4400, TSD 4700, TSD4737 Basic Principles of Operation – Systems with Solex 4A-1 Carburettor The turbocharger is fitted to increase the power, and especially the low engine speed torque, of the engine. This it achieved by utilising the exhaust gas flow to pump pressurised air into the engine at wide throttle openings. Whenever this occurs, the turbocharger applies boost to the induction system. Under most conditions, the motor runs under naturally-aspirated principles. The inlet manifold may be under partial vacuum but the pressure chest partially pressurised under conditions of moderate power demand. The size of the turbocharger has been carefully chosen to give a substantial increase in torque at low engine speeds. The turbocharger is especially effective from 800rpm, with the engine achieving full torque at less than 1800RPM. Thus, maximum engine torque is available constantly between 1800RPM and 3800 RPM. By comparison to most turbocharging systems, the turbocharger capacity may appear decidedly oversized. This selection is intentional, and is fundamental to the achievement of full engine torque at low engine speeds and the absence of any noticeable delay when boost is demanded. It also minimises heating of exhaust gases by ensuring minimal resistance to gas flow under boost conditions. Furthermore, the design has been carefully chosen to avoid the need for the turbocharger to accelerate on demand, a feature commonly referred to as spool-up. By using a large turbocharger running but unloaded when not under demand, spool-up is not a phenomenon in the system.

  • GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS for ALL THROTTLE PLATE KITS Installation Instructions
    GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL THROTTLE PLATE KITS Installation Instructions WARNING! These instructions must be read and fully understood before installation. If this manual is not fully understood, installation should not be attempted. GENERAL: These are basic general instructions to remove and install the throttle plates in any two or four barrel Holley carburetors. Since a four barrel carburetor was used in this instruction sheet, the same basic removal and installation steps apply to two barrels also. IMPORTANT NOTE: Before starting the actual work, go through a “dry” run with the throttle body and the instruction sheet. This will help you familiarize yourself and gain confidence with all the procedures. TOOLS AND MATERIAL REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION Phillips screwdriver Standard screwdriver Vise Soft wood blocks Duct tape Fine/medium file Loctite Grade 290 “Duck Billed” tip vise grips Carburetor stand (or suitable holding fixture) Access to compressed air REMOVAL OF THROTTLE BODY: 1. Place carburetor on its side to remove the throttle body screws. On vacuum secondary four barrels, it will be necessary to remove the “C” clip which holds the vacuum diaphragm stem onto the secondary throttle shaft. See Figure 1. 2. Place all screws, clips, and links to the side for later installation. FIGURE 1 FIGURE 2 Page 1 FIGURE 3 Front Side of Primary Throttle Bores shown FIGURE 4 REMOVAL OF OLD THROTTLE PLATES 1. Place the throttle body on a carburetor stand. See Figure 2. RECOMMENDATION: When servicing a carburetor off the vehicle it is recommended to place it in a suitable holding fixture. This helps prevent damage to the machined surfaces of the throttle body.

  • CHARACTERIZATION of TURBOCHARGER PERFORMANCE and SURGE in a NEW EXPERIMENTAL FACILITY
    CHARACTERIZATION of TURBOCHARGER PERFORMANCE and SURGE in a NEW EXPERIMENTAL FACILITY Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gregory David Uhlenhake, B.S. Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering The Ohio State University 2010 Master‟s Examination Committee: Dr. Ahmet Selamet, Advisor Dr. Rajendra Singh Dr. Philip Keller Copyright by Gregory David Uhlenhake 2010 ABSTRACT The primary goal of the present study was to design, develop, and construct a cold turbocharger test facility at The Ohio State University in order to measure performance characteristics under steady state operating conditions and to investigate surge for a variety of automotive turbocharger compression systems. A specific turbocharger is used for a thermodynamic analysis to determine facility capabilities and limitations as well as for the design and construction of the screw compressor, flow control, oil, and compression systems. Two different compression system geometries were incorporated. One system allowed performance measurements left of the compressor surge line, while the second system allowed for a variable plenum volume to change surge frequencies. Temporal behavior, consisting of compressor inlet, outlet, and plenum pressures as well as the turbocharger speed, is analyzed with a full plenum volume and three impeller tip speeds to identify stable operating limits and surge phenomenon. A frequency domain analysis is performed for this temporal behavior as well as for multiple plenum volumes with a constant impeller tip speed. This analysis allows mild and deep surge frequencies to be compared with calculated Helmholtz frequencies as a function of impeller tip speed and plenum volume.

  • Carbureted Fuel Pressure Regulators TB
    Aeromotive, Inc. Technical Bulletin #201 From: Aeromotive Technical Department Date: 12/8/14 Re: Carbureted Fuel Pressure Regulators, Vacuum and Boost Reference: Aeromotive Carbureted Bypass Regulators: Why and how to use vacuum and boost reference. All Aeromotive, Carburetor Bypass are designed to allow the regulated fuel pressure to be vacuum or boost referenced on a 1:1 ratio with PSI. The purpose of the boost reference feature is to ensure fuel pressure at the inlet of the needle-and-seat rises with boost, offsetting any air pressure opposing fuel flow at the outlet of the needle and seat, in the float bowl itself. For “blow through” carbureted engines, where air is pushed or “blown” through the carburetor from a turbo or centrifugal supercharger, the carburetor and float bowls are pressurized, along with the intake. Pressure enters the float bowls via the vent tubes. As boost pressure builds in the intake, it also builds in the bowls, offsetting the pressure working to push fuel in through the needle and seat. Rising boost can act to slow or even stop fuel from entering the bowl, allowing it to run empty. By connecting the boost reference port on the regulator to the hat or carburetor box, the regulator will raise fuel pressure 1:1 with boost pressure, offsetting the rising air pressure and ensuring fuel continues to fill the bowl and feed the engine. The boost reference line on a blow through engine should reference positive pressure only (that is boost), not vacuum, and be connected to the carburetor box or hat rather than the intake manifold.

  • Development of an Improve Turbocharger Dynamic Seal
    Development of an Improved Turbocharger Dynamic Seal Matthew J Purdeya,1 a) Cummins Turbo Technologies St Andrews Road, Huddersfield, HD1 6RA Abstract: Emissions regulation continually drives the automotive industry to innovate and develop. The industry must push the limits of engine/ turbocharger interaction to meet this changing regulation. Changes to the way a turbocharger is used, to help meet emission regulation, can impact the pressure balance over the compressor and turbine end seals. Seal capability can place constraints on the acceptable operating conditions. Market trends indicate that, in the near future, turbocharger operating conditions will be challenging for today’s compressor side seal systems. The need for improved compressor end sealing is greater than ever. This market intelligence drove Cummins Turbo Technologies to develop a robust seal system that meets the future demands of our customers. There are many benefits to the slinger/ collector seals systems used today and cutting-edge analysis has helped us generate the next level of understanding required to unleash further performance. This report gives insight to the market requirements and the approach to developing a seal to meet this need. Key Words: Turbocharger Seal, Multiphase Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD, Compressor Oil Leakage 1E-mail: [email protected] 1 Introduction The majority of the turbocharger market uses a similar approach to sealing with piston rings to control gas leakage and a slinger/collector seal system to handle oil. The slinger/collector seal system is used to keep oil away from these piston rings. In normal operation the pressure in the end housings is higher than the bearing housing and gas flows into the bearing housing, through the oil drain to the crankcase.
