What is Significance of K Value in Turbocharger??

Concept leading to understanding the importance of K Value in a #Turbocharger .
Measuring the value will be dealt with in Part 2.Gives a overview of the Bearings in a Turbocharger using the ABB VTR type with Roller bearings as a Example.
This video will throw light on the terms # LocatingBearing , #ThrustBearing.
Useful for Oral Exams for COC..

[@basantamahalik5634]

Thank You. Seen many videos of 'Synchronization of Alternators' but it is the best. It explains - what happens exactly if 'In Phase' or 'Out of Phase'; which a learner does not get to know in some of the other videos. Thanks again.

[@lanlenguyenthanh1027]

Thank you so much. Sir, i have a question that can you please help me? The question is: in the turbine side, do we have any thrust bearing? and if we have, what does it look like? is it same to the ones in compressor side?

[@rajeshbehera3663]

Great....... this not written in some book......thanks chief

[@olivertwist6855]

Hi sir, is there any labrinth seal present in this type of turbocharger AAB type, if present where is it's location?

[@rohithmandavilli752]

Good Day sir!! Very well detail explained, As you told for cooling of bearings (Locating & Free expansion) cooled by LO delivered by the pump attached, but as the turbocharger is running how the LO gets cooled, I may be wrong but I think for blower side as it taking suction from outer atmosphere, fresh air cools the LO but Turbine side how it gets cooled?

[@rmetcvideos]

There is Jacket cooling water circulation also..That along with Radiation aided by ER blowers suffice...

[@sudhiiryetchina4585]

Do more videos

[@surendersinghsehrawat9816]

Sir, small correction here. Also blower causes Thrust(pull) towards left . As blower is sucking air (low pressure side).in this process of blower pulling the whole shaft towards left. Correct me if understood it wrong. Blower is working same as if a propeller in astern kick trying to pull transmission shaft outside of ship.

[@engineer-in-chief8198]

Many Thanks for your work , Sir. One question though. How can we extend the concept of Locating bearing wear-down to Plain-type Turbocharger bearings?

[@rmetcvideos]

Every T/C will have thrust absorbing components. The bearings will still be located by Circlips , Collars in shaft etc etc depending upon various models.So a wear out of thrust collar or bearings surfaces which absorb the thrust will still happen and affect the K values

[@mec6953]

sir, good day. sir, in some turbo charger we use plain bearing. And this plain bearing may be 2 types. 1) fully floating 2) semi floating in semi floating type, the bearing does not move and it is locked by a pin. sir, my question is, what is fully floating and semi floating bearing? How they work? one is moving, other is not.

[@mec6953]

sir, can u pls teach us about Lambda control of turbo charger?

[@amaranand2871]

Nice sir..... please cover also MAN turbocharger..... and variable turbine geometry..... wish you good health sir

[@rmetcvideos]

Honestly I have no idea about the same. Will try and find out.If somebody is asking you for Orals or exams then ofcourse you need to know :-)

[@engineeringatpeak1813]

Sir.. It's a request for a video about crankshaft deflection 📈 plotting procedures..

[@rmetcvideos]

will do..but not immediately.Lots of info on same in the net

sir please kind enogh to do a video on labyrynth seal and how it affect to turbo charger

sure will do

Construction and lubrication part

[@wildernessbliss7021]

Sir what is the full form of K in K value and L ,M as well. The concepts you taught is awesome.

[@rmetcvideos]

Honestly, I don't know if there is a full form...But they always mean the same clearances

[@wildernessbliss7021]

@@rmetcvideos No problem sir , full is not so important what matters is the concept that is well scripted on my mind thanks for awesome and wisdom full videos.

[@dashpot06]

Sir , if K value is not same after assembly there is a slight difference of .2mm then , can it be adjusted without dismantling the shaft completely ?

[@rmetcvideos]

Obviously..something--bearing housing or something has not gone in place completely.Shaft need not be dismantled completely

[@vaiz389]

Sir in generators there are semi ,or floating bearing how shaft is prevented from axial movement Thank you

[@rmetcvideos]

They will still hane a thrust surface.How a thrust bearing is functioning in a ME.Ther Oil film is formed between the collar and the bearing surface. Similarly even ijn na flaoting bearing the Thrust face will take care of the axial movement ant it will be well lubricated.

[@vaiz389]

@@rmetcvideos thank you sir for replying

[@pardarpansingh8426]

sir type of bearing used on blower side and turnbine side

[@rmetcvideos]

Blower side is Locating type and Turbine side is sliding type. BUt this is only basis AB turbochargers. There are so many others where there are Journal or bush bearings , but I gues the concept remains almost same
