Variable Geometry Turbocharger Turbochargers works on the simple principle of increasing the intake air density by compression. Being able to fill more air into the combustion chamber will allow more fuel to be added to produce more power. However the operation of the turbocharger relies solely on the exhaust gas velocity to drive the compressor. Thus the compressor will be at optimum operation range when the engine is under heavy load. When the throttle is opened‚ it will take a certain period

The relevance of Shakespeare is‚ in my opinion‚ unquestionable‚ even in contemporary times. Not only is his contribution to the English language immense in its proportions‚ but also enduring. Even today‚ William Shakespeare is a household name the world over. He is quite literally‚ the figure-head of English literature‚ even to the average layman. Innumerable versions of his immortal works are seen again and again in our films‚ plays and even our writing. His simple yet deep concepts have stood the

Modern Relevance of “The Birthmark” “The Birthmark” is a fable created by Hawthorne that conveys his viewpoint towards the use of science to contradict the laws of nature. The fable also includes commentary on the depiction of men and women in society‚ along with their presumed roles. Both of these themes in my opinion are even more relevant today than when the story was written. Hawthorne disapproves of science used as a tool to tamper with living beings‚ for they are not meant to be perfect
