Longer example sentences

Like the 911 Turbo, the Macan Turbo bundles silly amounts of power into a small package—its turbos rip off blistering passes and crackle, spit, and spin out wastegate excess like a champion. (33 words)

This wheel supercharges the engine air intake to a degree that can be controlled by means of a wastegate or by dynamically modifying the turbine housing's geometry (as in a VGT turbocharger). (33 words)

Opening the wastegate allows the excess energy destined for the turbine to bypass it and pass directly to the exhaust pipe, thus reducing boost pressure. (25 words)

Example sentences (9)

Like the 911 Turbo, the Macan Turbo bundles silly amounts of power into a small package—its turbos rip off blistering passes and crackle, spit, and spin out wastegate excess like a champion.

A free floating turbocharger is the simplest type of turbocharger. citation This configuration has no wastegate and can’t control its own boost levels.

As the aircraft climbs and the air density drops, the wastegate must continuously close in small increments to maintain full power.

In contrast, modern turbocharger systems use an automatic wastegate, which controls the manifold pressure within parameters preset by the manufacturer.

In manually controlled wastegate systems, the pilot must take care not to overboost the engine, which causes detonation, leading to engine damage.

In systems using a manually operated wastegate, the pilot must be careful not to exceed the turbocharger's maximum rpm.

Later systems utilized an adjustable wastegate, controlled either manually by the pilot or by an automatic hydraulic or electric system.

Opening the wastegate allows the excess energy destined for the turbine to bypass it and pass directly to the exhaust pipe, thus reducing boost pressure.

This wheel supercharges the engine air intake to a degree that can be controlled by means of a wastegate or by dynamically modifying the turbine housing's geometry (as in a VGT turbocharger).
