Turbocharger is the main product of Shanghai SHOUYUAN Power Technology Co,. Ltd. We deal with it every day. Every time I look at it, it always let me think about snail. But, do you know why its shape is like that? There are several main reasons:
In terms of aerodynamics, the volute structure of the turbocharger plays a crucial role. When the engine is in operation, the air is drawn into the turbocharger. After being sucked in, the gradually expanding volute showcases its remarkable design advantages. It can precisely guide the airflow to slow down and increase the pressure in a stable and orderly manner. Through this process, the kinetic energy of the air is efficiently converted into pressure energy. Moreover, compared to other irregular shapes, this specific volute structure effectively avoids the generation of turbulent flow within the air stream. By minimizing turbulence, unnecessary energy loss is significantly reduced, thereby ensuring an excellent supercharging effect. This allows the engine to receive a sufficient amount of pressurized air, enhancing its overall performance.
In terms of spatial layout, the turbocharger’s shape is highly adaptable to the often cramped and limited space within the engine compartment. It has the ability to integrate the intake, exhaust, and supercharging components compactly within a relatively small area. This integration makes it extremely convenient for it to be connected with the intake manifold and other relevant parts. As a result, the overall structure of the engine compartment becomes more compact and organized. Additionally, its shape also facilitates seamless cooperation with other components in the engine system, ensuring that the entire process of air intake, supercharging, and subsequent operations runs smoothly without any disruptions.
In terms of manufacturing process and cost considerations, the shape similar to the snail shell offers great convenience. It is highly conducive to traditional manufacturing processes like casting. During the production process, the continuous and gradually changing curved surface of this shape makes it relatively easy for manufacturers to control the difficulty level and production costs. At the same time, it can ensure the consistency and high quality of the products. Over time, a standardized model has been established in the development of turbochargers. With this standardized shape, manufacturers can carry out large-scale production more efficiently. Furthermore, it promotes the commonality of parts, which means that during maintenance and replacement, it becomes much easier and more cost-effective, ultimately reducing the overall cost of use and maintenance for users.
