Types Of Turbochargers In Marine Diesel Engines
Based on the exhaust gas flow, there are two types of turbochargers: Axial- flow turbo chargers and Radial turbo chargers.
Axial- Flow Turbochargers
Exhaust gas in and out of the turbine blade along the axis of the shaft are called axial- flow turbochargers.
Radial- Flow Turbochargers
Exhaust gas enters the turbine blades along the radial direction and leaves the turbine along the trailing edge of the blade. these type of turbo chargers are called Radial- Flow turbochargers
