We'll explain supercharger simply, the machine can be compressed air than available to a naturally aspirated engine.
Therefore, power and torque can be amplified more by compressing much air and fuel.
There are two main type of supercharger on cars, supercharger and turbo charger.
A turbo charger is a machine which compresses air to spin turbine then sends it to the engine with exhaust gas made from the engine.
turbine: something like complicated propeller which
changes flowing air into power.
It turns a turbine with exhaust gas, so the turner a engine step on the accelerator, the higher its power.
Thus, it often sticks to a sports car.
In addition, of course the power which you can add by the size of the turbocharger changes, also there is twin turbo.
This sticks a small turbo charger and a big one.
A small one can show power by little exhaust immediately, but it has few power which can be added.
A big one can take large power but it takes about few seconds to take that. It called us turbo lag.
So, we use a small one when the engine doesn't surround then use a big one when the engine surround so much.
It is equipped with sports car including Nissan GT-R, Pagani Huayra...
Let's look at this engine which is equipped GT-R with RB26DETT.
Like this it sticks two turbo chargers.
However, it burns fuel straight that twin turbos always compress a large quantity of air and send to it.
So don't think about fuel efficiency.
A supercharger is compressing air which is join the power of the engine to a torque.
Therefore, we can show power as soon as the engine has begun to turn around.
It's effective in letting you amplify low rotary torque which means the pushing power while the engine begins to turn.
That is equipped SUV(Sport Utility Vehicle) which the car have a performance that be able to run the entire course on-road or off-road with a big car, is equipped with an American car with a lower rotary torque.
Also, there are twin chargers.
it is smart to sticks both turbo charger and supercharger.
it can be used supercharger when the engine turns lower and can used turbo charger when the engine turns higher.
This is why we can supplement each other's faults with each advantage.
I love it this function lol
But there are many weight and appliances necessary to be equipped at the same time, there are few adoption examples.
Naturally aspirated engine is taking air of nature without supercharger or turbo charger.
Most of engine is this naturally aspirated engine but we'd like you to pay attention to super car's naturally aspirated engine.
It joins while there is not assistance to power and can feel power of the indifferent engine itself, and torque is obedient, and the naturally aspirated engine is smooth, thus it gets support from a many cars enthusiasts.
A big naturally aspirated engine including Aston Martin... can give a breathing sound whenever you separate an accelerator and change shift.
I'm so excited with it personally lol
However, nowadays car companies around the world turn size down,
it changes from large normal aspiration to the engine with the medium-sized supercharger steadily.
There is supercharger which can amplify power and torque, however there is a good point that only normal aspiration has so the normal aspiration never perishes.
