| description | Compressor is a part of turbocharger approaches that utilize the exhaust gas of an
automobile to drive the compression device. The purpose of turbocharging is to increase the intake
pressure and the amount of air into the combustion chamber to improve the efficiency of the engine.
Compressor impeller determines the service life of the turbocharger. This paper proposes the new
methodology of producing the compressor impeller using Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) material
by investment casting. In general, this study presents the tasks pertaining to metal matrix composites
and their interactions in designing of compressor impeller. This study presents the use of genetic
algorithm (GA) and computer programs for designing a new compressor and determined the wax
pattern dimensions based on three-dimensional finite-element simulations as a preliminary study by
using investment casting method. The model of thermal and mechanical analysis was developed by
ANSYS. As the results, the simulation model was generated and it could be used for improving the
design of turbine-compressor assembly through the bottom geometry changes of the compressor. |
