Emission testing in four stroke bike engine by installing turbocharger

Mechanical engineering

The main aim of this project is to reduce the engine exhaust emission. This is achieved by diverting exhaust energy from the combustion process to run the turbine. As the turbine is being driven by the exhaust energy, the other side of the turbo compresses fresh intake air and drives it into the engine's intake. This results in a greater mass of air entering the cylinder, which helps to achieve complete combustion. This is done by installing a turbocharger which is connected directly to the carburetor inlet. The main components that are required for installing the turbocharger are mild steel tube, flange coupling, turbocharger and a four stroke bike. The emission test is done before and after the installation of the turbocharger. It is done to check whether the installation of turbocharger in the bike helps to reduce the emission of the main emission gases which are HC, CO. The main application of this project is to reduce the engine emission gases by trying to achieve complete combustion in the engine.
