    At 0:58 I just love how during the cylinder honing process, the block spins around instead of the honing head which here stays fixed moving up down only lol :)
    It looks like a plasma coating process by the way...

      A turbo is driven by the exhaust.

      They also keep referring to "combustion" which doesn't happen with a diesel. Diesel's work on compression.

    • @Eddiecurrent2000
      @Eddiecurrent2000 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Well, combustion does occur in the cylinder, perhaps you're confusing it with 'ignition', which kinda happens but it's ignition due to the high temperature within the cylinder and not a spark, but there are some corking errors in these programmes.

    • @alexanderjamesreed935
      @alexanderjamesreed935 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** Yeah my mistake, I mean't ignition. However it still stands that diesel does not need a specific air/fuel mix to make power. It requires it to make power cleanly.

    Audi's TDI Engines are amazing for example the 6.0L TDI V12 from the Q7 It makes 500hp and 738 lb/ft of torque , and consumes 9l/100km!! More than 20mpg!

      +1975 First On Race Day Capri 3.0 Ghia more amazing is the price tag back then around $ 2 million more amazingly the performance of that engine on the Q7 is comparable to the BMW M5 V10... oh god if I were that filthy rich!

  • @lcbreezyl

    They explained the turbo wrong. The exhast side turbine doesnt draw out exhast instead it is driven by the exhast and compresses air on the intake side.

    @mythril4 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The engine uses little fuel per mile, that's already greener without any emission software or control systems. This is an awesome engine hands down, I would like one without the "fixed" software. There is a dark downside to owning a diesel. Due to the quality of metals required, the more precise machining, the ultra high pressure injection amongst other things, diesels are expensive to fix. If you are a person who neglects their vehicle regularly, stick with a gas engine. A diesel will treat you right, but it only returns the love you give it. Gas engines care a lot less about your love.

  • @GuyRWood
    @GuyRWood 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I always said that until I bought my first turbo diesel a year ago. I FRICKIN' love it now. The torque is amazing, you accelerate on the motorway and it goes like a stabbed rat.

  • @jgmagoo1
    @jgmagoo1 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    The turbocharger does NOT "draw out the exhaust"! It actually IMPEDES the flow of exhaust out of the engine but captures the energy required to drive the impeller which forces air into the engine.. More power is gained by the additional air than is required to power the impeller, so a net gain in power results.

  • @eamh2002
    @eamh2002 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    If I remember right, Yamaha used it in earlier r1 models but then stopped making them because the intake port walls needed to be so thin, and the power gain is minimal compared to well designed 4-valve design :)
    It's also cheaper to make and maintain.

  • @Desmodromic916
    @Desmodromic916 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Exhaust turbine does draw some power tho. Im sure you heard for turbo lag?

  • @ForestTDI
    @ForestTDI 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    This turbocharger seems like GTB1756VK which has 56 mm on exducer (inducer 41,5mm), but on 3,0TDI are usually installed GTB2260VK which has 44,5/60 (inducer/exducer) ... and these spin really 200k RPM. We use these turbochargers on 1,9TDI and these spins about 250k RPM.

  • @JosephArata
    @JosephArata 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Gear case would need to be constructed on the side of the engine adding a bit of weight to house the idler gears and main gears for the crank and camshafts. Also the size of the gears would require the engine to be a little bit longer than it is currently to properly house the gears in the gear case. Not impossible its just they would have to redesign the engine to make it work with the current size constraints they have with their cars.

  • @jgmagoo1
    @jgmagoo1 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    The exhaust side of a turbo DOES produce backpressure which IN ITSELF would reduce an engine's power. However there is a NET GAIN in power from the increased intake air forced into the engine by the impeller on the intake side of the turbocharger.
    Yes I am fully aware of the mechanical dirve of the compound turbos being used on a few modern heavy trucks.
    Mechanical drive from compound turbos were also used on some airplanes in WWII

  • @fallingwater
    @fallingwater 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    The description for the turbocharger is wrong. The exhaust turbine doesn't draw out anything - it's spun by the exhaust, and drives the intake turbine.

  • @TheClassFool
    @TheClassFool 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Actually the turbo uses the waste heat in the exhaust to compress the air without robbing the engine of power. This is unlike a supercharger which would be gear or belt driven and thus takes power from the crankshaft. Believe me or don't in recent years more commercial trucks have compound turbo charging (not talking about series turbocharging) where a second turbo has the impeller drive a gear on the geartrain to add power to the crankshaft instead of driving a turbine to compress air.

      krap101 Stating that the turbo charger draws out the hot exhaust and then sends it out the exhaust pipe is dead wrong. The point that comes across is that the person who wrote the text does not have a clue how a turbo works.

    Do they really put each individual engine into a "test vehicle" - or do they do that just once for the first production car, to get the emission specs, then just assemble engines into their actual cars for the next few thousand units?

  • @TheClassFool
    @TheClassFool 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excuse got turbine and impeller backwards. Might as well also note that what I meant by series turbocharging was to have the air compressed twice by two turbos. The advantage of turbo is of course more power without wasting energy. Superchargers are more responsive as they don't need to spool up to speed and you don't have to worry about overspeed and loss of lubrication to a spinning turbo after heavy engine load and immediate shutdown.

  • @BugMagnet
    @BugMagnet 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    In the old days before common rail injection technologies, having more valves was the best way to achieve best fuel dispersion in the zylinder. Now since that is achieved by high pressure injection, regulated by nozzle geometry and ecu chips, having 3 intake valves became obsolete.

    • @ChucksSEADnDEAD
      @ChucksSEADnDEAD 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +baxtar1963 Their CEOs make less because auto manufacturing is a low profit business, where the high margins are in spare parts and the cars are sold with profit margins that would kill most businesses.
      Also, in Europe we drive cars for 10, 20 years because we can't afford to buy new ones, and because of taxes cars here are more expensive than in America.
      No shit out CEOs make less. We can barely afford to buy their products.

    @morron6666 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think they mean 30% better fuel economy. It may only be 7% more efficient but diesel stores more energy per litre which means you need to burn less for the same energy output.

  • @TheClassFool
    @TheClassFool 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Think about it, newtons laws of thermodynamics tell us about the conservation of energy. We cannot create energy nor destroy it only convert it, energy losses are usually in the form of heat escaping. If turbos really operated on the pressure of the exhaust then compound turbocharging would be pointless and counterproductive as the force would push back on the piston during the exhaust stroke. Of course there's miniscule resistance, but the turbo really gets energy from the heat of exhaust.

    You diesel haters are something else again. The Audi turbo diesels win races and use identical suppliers used by Benz and BMW. THE FACTS ARE that the use of genuine German synthetic oils keep them all running to 500k miles. They all use piston, rod, chain and tensioners, and injection from identical suppliers and that there are more diesel powered cars in Europe than gas ones. Diesels do not suck. They outlast gas powered engines even though they have very high compression ratios. BMW BENZ and A

    you can safe the enormous engineering and fabrication-effort which are required in making 5valves per cylinder heads.

    @xTRVLNMANx 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Putting it that way; yes, stuff will wear faster. Keep in mind though; if your wanting to "race" or drive aggressively, just get a "RS/S" Audi, they build those engines to withstand those extremes! As for the bolts, most German cars need specialty tools to even change certain fluids! ..thats a pain!

  • @jonsen2k
    @jonsen2k 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm not 100% sure about the diesel, but I don't think they ever made a 5v per cylinder diesel engine. As for their petrol's, after they introduced the direct fuel injection in the FSI and TFSI engines, there's simply not enough room in the cylinder head for 5 valves any more. Not that there ever was any real indications on that 5 valves has any advantages over 4 valves.

  • @BXLnord
    @BXLnord 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well yes and no,there is common rail injection which improves the poweroutput drastic by injecting diesel multiple times which each stroke but as you said,we won't see a Ferrari running on diesel any time soon.

  • @campy9sp
    @campy9sp 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Not so in this generation of Diesel. The multiple injections during the power stroke are monitored in real time via a pressure sensor in each glow plug assembly, the REAL secret to this generation. NOx emissions are greatly reduced by a dual pass EGR system, lowering combustion temperature and NOx. The exhaust of this engine is cleaner than a gasoline engine; the pipes are still silver on the INside after many thousands of miles.

    And for passenger cars. A turbodiesel is really really nice to drive as they use to have incredible low-down torque (here in Europe most prefer to use manual gearboxes so the engine characteristics do matter), and they consume noticeably less too. At least in European fuel prices, your wallet will thank you if your car runs on diesel.

  • @ordguy
    @ordguy 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    continuing.....
    5 valve engines have smaller valves that enable higher revs - an advantage negated by better, lighter materials and stiffer springs
    Bottom line - The marginal increase in volumetric efficiency is probably not worth the increase in cost and complexity. Similar improvements in breathing can possibly be made in other areas of design of a 4 valve engine without the cost increase of a 5 valve design

    Honestly you thought that's how I think it works and when did a windmill which doesn't operate on the same principles come into this? No it uses the physics of thermodynamics by compressing the hot exhaust through the volute to make it hotter. The area past the volute is at a lower pressure and temperature and as physics shows us heat goes toward cold and high pressure goes toward low pressure until the difference is balanced. Look at jet engines, ramjet, scramjet and Brayton cycle similarity.
