Hi everyone,
Like the title suggests, I'm looking for a good book or reference that goes into the details of supercharger and turbocharger design. Subjects like impeller and turbine design, scroll/housing design, fluid dynamics, compressor maps, etc... are some of the topics that I'm looking for.
I have a degree in Engineering, so I'm not afraid of an overly technical or theoretical books.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
try Maximum Boost or supercharged they both are pretty informative
Cool, thanks!Quote:

But I can't seem to find anything on that Supercharged book. Any idea who the author is? I'll keep trying sites like Amazon and see what it comes up with.
Thanks again!
EDIT: Just found Supercharged on Amazon.ca!
I'm not sure if it's still published, but "Turbochargers" by Hugh Mcinnes is a good one. It was published by HP books.Quote:

Corky Bell wrote Maximum Boost and Supercharged is the follow up book he wrote.
Amazon.com has it
I second both of these books. Corky Bell is very knowledgable and his books are great.Quote:
