Theoretical and experimental study of mechanical losses in automotive turbochargers
The aim of the present work is to show an approximation, through an experimental an theoretical study, to quantify the mechanical losses in a turbocharging system. These are linked to the dynamics in the turbo shaft bearings, both axial and radial. Theoretical and experimental methodologies are pres...

| description | The aim of the present work is to show an approximation, through an experimental an theoretical study, to quantify the mechanical losses in a turbocharging system. These are linked to the dynamics in the turbo shaft bearings, both axial and radial. Theoretical and experimental methodologies are presented in order to develop a mechanical losses model. The experimental work consists on a measurement campaign in quasi-adiabatic operating conditions, while in the theoretical part, a mathematical model is developed taking into account the radial and axial bearings. The model uses some assumptions in order to solve the Navier-Stokes equations, leading to a simplified model which includes viscosity and the Reynolds number of the oil film formed on the bearings. The proposed model has shown a good agreement with the experimental data |
