turbonomottori
The turbonomottori, a portmanteau of "turbocharger" and "motori" (Italian for engines), refers to a type of internal combustion engine that utilizes a turbocharger to enhance its performance. This technology is not a distinct engine type in itself but rather a modification applied to existing engine designs. A turbocharger is essentially an air compressor driven by exhaust gases. By forcing more air into the combustion chamber, a turbocharger allows for more fuel to be burned, leading to increased power output and improved efficiency compared to a naturally aspirated engine of the same displacement.
The core components of a turbocharger are a turbine and a compressor, both mounted on a common
