Patent problem of intercooler

It will be beneficial for all turbocharged cars to use intercoolers, and there is generally room for improvement for the intercoolers that are standard in the original factory. Because what we pursue is to suck as much air as possible into the engine, if the internal structure of the intercooler will affect the airflow, it means that the engine will lose some power. The two most critical parameters of intercooler quality are the modeling of its internal airflow channel and the design of cooling fins. In an ideal state, the design of the intercooler is that the larger the area of the heat sink, the better, and it is best not to have hard bends and weld marks in the air flow channel that will hinder the air flow. Some people think that since all intercoolers will affect the intake airflow, is it worthwhile to use intercoolers? Considering that if equipped with a well-designed intercooler with little impact on airflow and good quality, it can increase power, we think it is more cost-effective to use an intercooler. Imagine if the boost value of the original vehicle is 15psi. According to the estimation of senior experts, the pressure loss caused by the intercooler is generally 0.5-0.9psi Even if the intercooler is used, the pressure loss will not exceed1.3psi. Moreover, as increasing the pressure will lead to an increase in the intake temperature, lowering the intake temperature will also bring corresponding pressure loss, so don't blame the intake pressure loss entirely.
