    Difference Between Turbocharger and Supercharger With PDF

    A turbocharger uses exhaust gases to drive a compressor that forces more air into the engine, increasing power. In contrast, a supercharger is directly driven by the engine using a belt connected to the crankshaft, allowing it to operate immediately upon startup. Key differences include the turbocharger being more efficient but requiring an intercooler, while the supercharger generates more noise but is simpler in design and installation. Both can increase engine power by 30-50% but use different methods - one via exhaust gases, the other through direct mechanical linkage.

    The main differences between Turbocharger and Supercharger are Turbocharger is


    driven by the exhaust gas of an engine, whereas The supercharger is
    directly driven by the engine through a belt drive.

    Before moving to further detailed explanation lets have some overview of Turbocharger and
    Supercharger.

    Note: At the bottom of every article the PDF link is attached make sure if you want you can

    Difference Between Turbocharger and Supercharger

    Difference Between Turbocharger and Supercharge:


    Here are the 10 Points on the difference between Turbocharger and Supercharger:

    1/3
    Sl. Supercharger Turbocharger
    No

    1. It is directly driven by the engine It is driven by the exhaust gas of an engine.


    through a belt drive.

    2. Supercharger generates more It generates less noise because it used


    noise. exhaust gases.

    3. The supercharger is more costly The turbocharger is less costly.


    than the turbocharger.

    4. It is not essential to use inter-cooler Because turbocharger work by exhaust gases


    in the supercharger. so inter-cooler is essential.

    And the 6 Point are:

    5. It increases engine power by about 30- It increases engine power by about 30-
    40%. 50%.

    6. The supercharger uses the useful power The turbocharger uses the power of
    of an engine to drive the compressor. exhaust (waste power) gases to drive
    the compressor.

    7. The supercharger is connected by the Turbocharger used exhaust gases to


    crankshaft, so it starts working suddenly operate, so it does not work until
    as the engine start. sufficient smoke is generated by the
    engine.

    8. A supercharger is a unit that is bolted to A turbocharger is similar to a


    the engine and connected with a belt supercharger, except it has an exhaust
    drive between a crankshaft and the housing instead of a belt drive, and runs
    supercharger unit. by exhaust gasses.

    9. Because it uses the useful power of the Because it uses exhaust gases to drive
    engine so it decreases the engine the compressor, resulting in increased
    efficiency. efficiency.

    10. The supercharger is difficult to adopt in When we considered design, the


    the car because it occupies a large turbocharger is compact and easily
    space. adapted in the cars.

    So this our short presentation on the comparison between Turbocharger and supercharger, I
    hope you like it if so, let me know your thoughts in the comment section.

    FAQ:

    What is Turbocharger?

    2/3
    A turbocharger is similar to a supercharger, except it has an exhaust housing instead of a
    belt drive, and runs by exhaust gasses.

    What is a supercharger?

    A supercharger is a unit that is bolted to the engine and connected with a belt drive between
    a crankshaft and the supercharger unit.

    What are the difference between Turbocharger and Supercharger?


    Turbocharger used exhaust gases to operate, so it does not work until sufficient smoke is
    generated by the engine.
    The supercharger is connected by the crankshaft, so it starts working suddenly as the engine
    start.
