Turbocharging and Functional Safety the Topics of New SAE International Web Seminars
WARRENDALE, Pa., July 12, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SAE International announces two new web seminars to enhance the technical skills of global automotive practitioners.
These live, instructor-led online courses include:
The two new seminars include:
Fundamental Concepts of Turbocharging Modern Engines: Current Practices and Trends(WB1859) - Turbocharging is rapidly becoming an integral part of many internal combustion engine systems. While it has long been a key to diesel engine performance, it is increasingly seen as an enabler in meeting many of the efficiency and performance requirements of modern automotive gasoline engines. This web seminar will discuss the basic concepts of turbocharging and air flow management of four-stroke engines. The course will explore the fundamentals of turbocharging, system design features, performance measures, and matching and selection criteria. Both spark ignition and diesel engine systems will be discussed as well as the impact of different applications. It will discuss the interaction between turbocharging and engine systems and the impact on performance, fuel economy and emissions. Developments in turbocharging technology will also be discussed.
