Turbocharger ndi njira yokakamiza yowongolera. Imapanikiza mpweya womwe ukuyenda mu injini. Mpweya woponderezedwa umalola injini kukanikizira mpweya wambiri mu silinda, ndipo mpweya wochulukirapo umatanthauza kuti mafuta ochulukirapo amatha kubayidwa mu silinda. Chifukwa chake, kuyaka kwa silinda iliyonse kumatha kupanga mphamvu zambiri. Injini ya Turbocharged imapanga mphamvu zambiri kuposa injini wamba yemweyo. Mwanjira imeneyi, mphamvu ya injini imatha kusintha kwambiri. Kuti izi zitheke, turbocharger imagwiritsa ntchito mpweya wotuluka mu injini kuyendetsa turbine kuti izungulire, ndipo turbine imayendetsa mpope wa mpweya kuti uzungulira. Kuthamanga kwakukulu kwa turbine mu turbine ndi 150,000 revolutions pamphindi - zomwe ndi zofanana ndi 30 liwiro la injini zambiri zamagalimoto. Panthawi imodzimodziyo, chifukwa cha kugwirizana ndi chitoliro chotulutsa mpweya, kutentha kwa turbine kumakhala kokwera kwambiri. Kuti

Ma turbocharger nthawi zambiri amayikidwa kuseri kwa injini yotulutsa mpweya. Mpweya wotulutsa utsi wotuluka papaipi yanthambi yotulutsa mpweya umayendetsa turbine kuti izungulire, ndipo turbine imalumikizidwa ndi kompresa yomwe imayikidwa pakati pa fyuluta ya mpweya ndi chitoliro choyamwa kudzera pamtengo. Compressor imakanikiza mpweya mu silinda. Mpweya wotulutsa mpweya wochokera mu silinda umadutsa muzitsulo za turbine, zomwe zimapangitsa kuti turbine ikhale yozungulira. Kuchuluka kwa mpweya wotulutsa mpweya womwe umadutsa mumasamba, m'pamenenso turbine imazungulira mofulumira. Kumapeto ena a shaft yolumikiza turbine, kompresa imakokera mpweya mu silinda. Compressor ndi mpope wa centrifugal womwe umayamwa mpweya pakati pa masamba ndikuponyera mpweya kunja pamene ukuzungulira. Kuti agwirizane ndi liwiro la 150,000 rpm, ma turbocharger amagwiritsa ntchito ma hydraulic bearings. Ma hydraulic bearings amatha kuchepetsa kukangana komwe kumakumana ndi shaft ikazungulira. Zomwe zimalumikizidwa ndi turbine ndi: chitoliro chanthambi chotulutsa, chosinthira njira zitatu, chitoliro cholowera, chitoliro chamadzi, chitoliro chamafuta, ndi zina zambiri.
