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. A turbocharger is similar to a supercharger, except it has an exhaust housing instead of a belt drive, and runs by exhaust gasses. A supercharger is a unit that is bolted to the engine and connected with a belt drive between a crankshaft and the supercharger unit.
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.

Frictional energy is generated when the stirring tool comes in contact with the workpiece. There are two main types of superchargers. Besides how the two devices work explained above another key difference is that whilst a supercharger requires engine power to run, a turbocharger runs off waste exhaust energy created by the engine.
This means that overall turbochargers operate with higher efficiency, utilising exhaust energy which is typically lost in naturally-aspirated and supercharged engines. Turbochargers provide significantly increased horsepower for engines, especially allowing smaller engines to produce much more power in relation to their size, whilst simultaneously offering better fuel economy. On the other hand, turbochargers tend to provide less boost at lower engine RPMs whilst the turbo spools up; the so called turbo lag.
The trade-off is reduced efficiency, given superchargers use engine power to produce engine power. The reason why turbochargers are used most commonly in Europe is because the engines are small and four cylinders are standard. Superchargers can deliver their boost at lower RPMs then a turbocharger, whereas the turbocharger works best at high engine speeds. Turbochargers are quieter and superchargers are more reliable. Superchargers are easier to maintain than the complex turbocharger.
In conclusion when you compare superchargers to turbochargers, there is no clear winner. Which option is better depends on the vehicle itself and how it is typically used. As vehicle technology evolves there will always be demand for both as manufacturers and customers search for power and fuel economy efficiencies.

In theory, a turbocharger is more efficient because it is using the "wasted" energy in the exhaust stream for its power source. On the other hand, a turbocharger causes some amount of back pressure in the exhaust system and tends to provide less boost until the engine is running at higher RPMs.
Superchargers are easier to install but tend to be more expensive. Sign up for our Newsletter! Mobile Newsletter banner close. Mobile Newsletter chat close. Mobile Newsletter chat dots. Mobile Newsletter chat avatar. Mobile Newsletter chat subscribe.
