Forced Induction Systems

What is the primary purpose of forced induction in an internal combustion engine?

• To increase fuel efficiency

• To reduce engine noise

• To increase engine power output

• To decrease engine size

Which of the following is NOT a type of forced induction?

• Turbocharger

• Supercharger

• Nitrous oxide system

• Carburettor

What component of a turbocharger is responsible for driving the compressor?

• Wastegate

• Turbine

• Intercooler

• Bypass valve

Which of the following is a key difference between a supercharger and a turbocharger?

• Superchargers are driven by exhaust gases

• Turbochargers are belt-driven

• Superchargers provide immediate boost

• Turbochargers are more fuel-efficient

What is the main function of an intercooler in a turbocharged system?

• To increase the temperature of the air

• To cool the compressed air

• To reduce engine noise

• To increase fuel consumption

Which component is NOT part of a supercharger system?

• Compressor

• Pulley

• Turbine

• Drive belt

What is the primary advantage of an electric turbocharger over a traditional turbocharger?

• It is cheaper to produce

• It eliminates turbo lag

• It requires no maintenance

• It increases fuel consumption

How does a nitrous oxide system increase engine power?

• By increasing the air pressure in the intake

• By cooling the intake air

• By adding more oxygen to the combustion process

• By reducing engine friction

What is a unique feature of variable vane turbochargers?

• They have a fixed geometry

• They adjust the angle of the vanes to optimise airflow

• They are only used in diesel engines

• They do not require an intercooler

Which of the following is a disadvantage of using a supercharger?

• Increased engine noise

• Reduced throttle response

• Takes power from the engine

• Delayed power delivery
