For other meanings, see supercharger
A supercharger (blower) is a gas compressor that forces more air and thus
more oxygen into the combustion chamber(s) of an internal combustion engine
than is achievable with ambient atmospheric pressure (as seen in a
naturally-aspirated engine, see forced induction).
The additional mass of oxygen-containing air forced into the engine
improves its volumetric efficiency, allowing it to burn more fuel in a
given cycle and thereby produce more power. A supercharger can be powered
mechanically by belt, gear and shaft, or chain-drive from the engine's
crankshaft. It can also be driven by a gas turbine powered by the exhaust
gases from the engine. Such turbine-driven centrifugal superchargers are
correctly known as turbo-superchargers, or more commonly, turbochargers.
