When it comes to
combustion engine vehicles, there are two types --
aspirated and naturally aspirated. Naturally aspirated engines
intake the air and depend on the atmospheric pressure
inserting into the motor, where as aspirated engines
use the air and compress it making it much more
pressurized going into the cylinder thus creating more
power. |

Aspiration also known as forced
induction, is the process of delivering
compressed air to the intake of the combustion engine. A
forced induction engine uses
a turbocharger or supercharger which compresses the air
to increase its pressure, temperature and density as it
is going into the piston. An engine without forced induction is considered a
naturally aspirated engine and does not have as much
"ummphf" when accelerating. |
