AI Quick Summary This article from 1971 discusses Mickey Thompson's Thermocharger, a system that uses compressed air to supercharge engines without mechanical pumps, pioneered in 1971.

The e-comp Scroll compresses air to 12.5 bar using a single-stage integrated electric motor. Credit: ZF. ZF’s Commercial Vehicle Solutions division has introduced a new air compressor designed ...

We stabilized the engine at peak horsepower at 6,100 rpm and then hit the button on the compressed-air supercharger and allowed the dyno to stabilize while we captured the numbers.

Compressed Air Supercharging has developed equipment that delivers extremely cold, dense air to the engine in an instant—and racers are getting results with it.

Dive into the world of Lego engineering as we build and test various types of pneumatic engines powered by compressed air! From starter motors to V8 and R12 engines, each step pushes the limits of ...

A water-to-air intercooler has more parts but is ideal for tighter engine bays, while an air-to-air intercooler uses more piping. Both types of intercoolers perform the same task.
