VGT PPT

Variable Geometry Turbochargers (VGTs) allow for the adjustment of the turbocharger's aspect ratio to optimize performance under varying conditions. They consist of four main parts: turbine, compressor, common axle, and air cooler, and function by using exhaust gases to drive the turbine, which in turn compresses ambient air. The nozzle angle is adjusted by an ECU-controlled stator vane to enhance efficiency at different speeds, improving air and fuel intake into the engine cylinders.

Variable Geometry Turbocharger

Introducrion
• Variable-geometry turbochargers (VGTs) also known as variable nozzle turbines/VNTs), are a family
of turbochargers

• Designed to allow the effective aspect ratio (A:R) of the turbo to be altered as conditions change

• It produces variations in the flow of inlet air mass by geometry change of inlet conditions of turbine
blades according to requirement
Turbocharger
Turbocharger consist of 4 parts

a) Turbine

b) Compressor

c) Common axel

d) Air cooler

WORKING
 The turbine inlet receives exhaust gases from the engine exhaust manifold
causing the turbine wheel to rotate
 This rotation drives the compressor, compressing ambient air
 After't delivers it to the air intake manifold of the engine at higher
pressure,resulting in a greater amount of the air and fuel entering the cylinder
Variable Geometry Turbocharger
 In variable geometry turbocharger the variation in inlet air mass is brought by
compressor speed

 Changes is done on the turbine

 Nozzle angle is changed by stator vane, operated by ECU unit of vehicle

 For low speed, the vane is brought in closed position so that boosting can be done by
compressor

 At high speed, the vane comes at open condition allowing most of the exhaust to
impact on the blades, and the pressure decreases of exhaust gases and
choking is avoided
