OM 366LA Turbocharged-Intercooled Engines

Buses_OH_1521_Engines
These Mercedes-Benz water-cooled, direct injection diesel engines with turbocharged intercooler have proven their worth on the roads a million times over. They have good pulling characteristics and maximum torques at as low as 1350rpm.
The exhaust gas turbocharged forces additional air into the engine intake manifold. This compressed air is allowed to expand and cool in the intercooler which is fitted in front of the radiator. This way, the mass of the intake air is greater. Increasing fuel feed to the engine combustion chamber results in higher output.
