Charge air cooler (Intercooler)
Turbocharged engines employ a turbocompressor to force air into the engine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler to
cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow raises pressure in the intake manifold and increases
engine power over that developed by the normallyaspirated engine. The charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator)
