1]Turbo Charger
Turbochargers use the vehicle's exhaust gas; two fans – a turbine fan and a compressor fan – rotate from exhaust gas.
2]Super Charger
superchargers are powered directly by the engine; a belt pulley drives gears that cause a compressor fan to rotate.
*Advantages and Disadvantage of Turbo Charger*
1] Advantages
1)Significant increase in horsepower.
2)Power vs size: allows for smaller engine displacements to produce much more power relative to their size.
3)Better fuel economy: smaller engines use less fuel to idle, and have less rotational and reciprocating mass, which improves fuel economy.
4)Higher efficiency: turbochargers run off energy that is typically lost in naturally-aspirated and supercharged engines (exhaust gases), thus the recovery of this energy improves the overall efficiency of the engine.
2]Disadvantage
1)Turbo lag: turbochargers, especially large turbochargers, take time to spool up and provide useful boost.
2) Boost threshold: for traditional turbochargers, they are often sized for a certain RPM range where the exhaust gas flow is adequate to provide additional boost for the engine. They typically do not operate across as wide an RPM range as superchargers.
3) Power surge: in some turbocharger applications, especially with larger turbos, reaching the boost threshold can provide an almost instantaneous surge in power, which could compromise tyre traction or cause some instability of the car.
4) Oil requirement: turbochargers get very hot and often tap into the engine’s oil supply. This calls for additional plumbing, and is more demanding on the engine oil. Superchargers typically do not require engine oil lubrication.
*Advantages and Disadvantage of super charger*
1] Advantages
1) They are simpler and more reliable because they don’t have the complexities of turbine blades.
2) Superchargers also generate less heat than turbochargers, which can be important in a high-performance engine.
3) Superchargers provide a significant boost in horsepower and torque, which can be especially advantageous for smaller or lower-powered engines.
4) Supercharger are relatively easy to install and don’t require any major modifications to the engine.
2] Disadvantage
1) The main disadvantage of supercharger is that they take up space in the engine bay. This can be a problem in ultra-compact cars or motorcycles. Turbochargers are smaller and can be mounted further away from the heat-generating exhaust manifold.
2) They require more maintenance than turbochargers.
3) Higher parasitic power loss, meaning the engine has to work harder to turn the supercharger than it does to turn the impeller on a turbocharger.
4) It required an efficient cooling system.
5) They use engine power to operate
