COOLING OF TURBOCHARGER ROTOR AND STATOR COMPONENTS USING ADDITIVE TECHNOLOGY BUILT-IN INTO THE STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS OF THE COOLING CHANNELS

摘要

A turbocharger includes a turbine and a compressor, each of which includes a rotor and a stator. At least one of the respective rotors and/or stators includes at least one interior flow passage at least partly or completely surrounded by a wall that provides cooling. The respective rotor and/or stator having the at least one flow passage is at least partly produced by additive manufacturing.
