You’re and idiot Alfred Buchi, a Swiss engineer, put forward the first plans for a supercharger driven by exhaust gases, and the turbo was born. In 1905, he patented the idea, and in 1915, whilst working as the Chief Engineer for the research wing of Sulzer Brothers, he built the first turbocharged diesel engine.

Crnr2Crnr Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Büchi's patents Büchi's patent, No. 204630 received from the Imperial Patent Office of the German Reich on November 6, 1905,[2] describes a "highly supercharged compound engine" with a solution to capture such heat using an "axial compressor, radial piston engine and axial turbine on a common shaft".[3] The idea was simple, however the materials and fuels required for it to function were not yet available.[4] While a later patent (1925) describing "pulse operation for low-pressure supercharging"[5] is considered his landmark, due to Büchi's invention the year 1905 is thus acknowledged as the birth of the turbocharging era. Büchi's principles from 1905 remain the same for turbocharging today. Power and efficiency are improved "by forcing additional air into the cylinders, with the heat from the exhaust gas used to drive the turbine".[3] Sulzer and Brown Boveri Joining Sulzer in 1909, Büchi researched diesel engines while continuing to investigate turbocharging innovations, focusing on large marine applications. In 1911 Sulzer opened an experimental turbocharger plant, and Büchi's first prototype for turbocharged diesel engine was produced in 1915. Intending to mitigate effects of thin air in high altitude for airplane engines, this version did not maintain consistent boost pressure and thus was not well received.[3][6] In 1915 Büchi began a dialog with Brown, Boveri & Cie (BBC) to set up cooperation, though it took them until 1923 to reach an agreement.[7] Büchi went on to lead the Sulzer diesel department during 1918-19. Marine applications edit Nearly two decades later Büchi's invention achieved practical application. The first use of turbocharging technology was for large marine engines, when the German Ministry of Transport commissioned the construction of the passenger liners Preussen and Hansestadt Danzig in 1923. Both ships featured twin ten-cylinder diesel engines with output boosted from 1750 to 2500 horsepower by turbochargers designed by Büchi and built under his supervision by Brown Boveri (BBC) (now ABB).[2][8] Büchi Syndicate Eventually near the end of his tenure at the firm, in 1925 Büchi for the first time succeeded in combining his technology with a diesel engine, increasing efficiency by over 40%,[3] the same year filing Swiss patent number 122 664 under his own name ("Büchi-Duplex turbocharging system").[9] In 1926 he left Sulzer and established a new company known as the "Büchi Syndicate". Büchi headed engineering and customer relations, Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works (SLM) in Winterthur provided engines for testing, and BBC in Baden built turbochargers.[5] The same year Büchi also became Director of SLM.[1] Two years later Büchi's new, larger turbocharger design yielded improved results, leading to an increase in licensing agreements with engine builders.[5] The Büchi Syndicate stayed together until 1941 when BBC continued turbo-related operations under its own name.[9] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Büchi#:~:text=While a later patent (1925,the same for turbocharging today.

NaturallyAspirated Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 5 hours ago, Rod said: You’d have to exceed nominal sea level pressure to be charged Not necessarily, one could be operating an engine at sea level where relative pressure is low, 930mb, and have a 1 psi positive boost and still be below standard atmosphere with the charge. The engine could also be designed to exceed standard atmosphere when 1013mb or greater pressure is the starting point. The same scenario applies where 3 psi of boost is added at 10,000ft. That turbo charge would also be below 1013mb or 14.7psi. Turbo normalization is turbocharging used to match 1013mb of absolute intake pressure. It’s a category of turbocharging. It includes feedback to keep a constant charge pressure of one atm. In common parlance it’s unimportant, and engine that uses exhaust gas to compress incoming air is referred to as turbocharged.

f7ben Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 2 hours ago, ActionfigureJoe said: The first commercial use of turbocharging was in diesels not aircraft. They tinkered with it in some liberty motors, but the mid “20’s saw the first actual application in diesels. The original theory came from the idea that TC could compensate for the lower oxygen levels at altitude. First commercial use was 1918 on an aircraft , sorry you’re wrong again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airflite1 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Since aviation was brought into the discussion and I debated heavily putting a TAT Whirlwind III on my Bonanza, I'll add their comparisons of turbocharging and turbo-normalizing. https://taturbo.com/tnvtc.html Turbonormalizing Vs Turbocharging. Understanding the important differences Let us begin. TN and TC engines share the following characteristics: Both involve compressing outside ambient air to make it available as denser air to the engine induction system so that the engine can make more power. The degree to which the air is compressed is just a matter of design choice when one decides to specify the engine and its ability to make horsepower across the normal range of desired altitudes. Any time you compress air - you make it hotter. (As discussed below - almost everybody in the early days missed the importance of intercoolers.) Both TN and TC systems use an exhaust driven turbine to drive a centrifugal compressor - at speeds that may range as high as 120,000 RPM on some units. Both TN and TC systems can use the same turbo components. The TN system designer typically starts with a normally aspirated engine and asks the following question: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaturallyAspirated Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 4 minutes ago, f7ben said: Wait ….so turbocharging and turbo normalizing are different things? Quote So, now, take the list of nine items above, and add item number 10. Change the piston geometry to reduce the compression ratio by about 1 point, from ~ 8.5 down to 7.5:1. When you do that you have identified the only meaningful "difference" in the hardware between our common terminology of turbonormalizing and turbocharging.
