Evaluation of different heat transfer conditions on an automotive turbocharger
This paper presents a combination of theoretical and experimental investigations for determining the main heat fluxes
within a turbocharger. These investigations consider several engine speeds and loads as well as different methods of
conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer on the turbocharger. A one-dimensional heat transfer model of the
turbocharger has been developed in combination with simulation of a turbocharged engine that includes the heat
transfer of the turbocharger. Both the heat transfer model and the simulation were validated against experimental
measurements. Various methods were compared for calculating heat transfer from the external surfaces of the
turbocharger, and one new method was suggested.
The effects of different heat transfer conditions were studied on the heat fluxes of the turbocharger using
experimental techniques. The different heat transfer conditions on the turbocharger created dissimilar temperature
gradients across the turbocharger. The results show that changing the convection heat transfer condition around the
turbocharger affects the heat fluxes more noticeably than changing the radiation and conduction heat transfer
conditions. Moreover, the internal heat transfers from the turbine to the bearing housing and from the bearing housing
to the compressor are significant, but there is an order of magnitude difference between these heat transfer rates.The Swedish Energy Agency and KTH Royal Institute of Technology sponsored this work within the Competence Centre for Gas Exchange (CCGEx).Aghaali, H.; Angström, H.; Serrano Cruz, JR.
