…In an internal combustion engine, increasing the mass (weight) of the air taken in allows the amount of fuel burned to be increased, and power output to be increased. For this purpose, the outside air is compressed, its density is increased, and it is then introduced into the cylinder (the combustion space in a rotary engine). This is called supercharging, and the blower or compressor used for supercharging is called a supercharger. There are two types of superchargers: those that are mechanically driven by gears from the engine's crankshaft, and those that are driven by an exhaust turbine; the latter are called turbochargers. … *Some of the terminology that refers to "supercharging" is listed below.
