Exhaust Turbocharger in Cutaway
Compressor and turbine wheel on one shaft, driven by nothing but exhaust energy
The breakdown comes from our own component register. Each component names the register group it belongs to. The model is built to scale (about 3.4 m long, 1.7 m largest diameter — an axial turbocharger of the kind fitted to a large two-stroke main engine), but it is not a likeness of any particular make.
