decrease.

The diffuser dries the air so that the pressure will rise and the temperature will cool
down.

The diffuser slows down the air velocity so that both the pressure and the temperature
will rise.

15. Is it
possible
that the
TC's oil
pressure
will rise to
5 bar
temporary?

No, it indicates blockage in the oil piping.

Yes, temporarily.

No, an orifice limits the pressure to 3 bar.

No, an automatic stop will happen before 5 bar.

16. Is the
radial

TC's
compressor
side an
average of
the upper

values?

No, TPS TC has only a radial compressor wheel.

Yes, it is marked with R.

No, it isn't measured from TPS.

It depents what type of TPS TC is in question.

17. What
should you
do before
turbocharger
maintenance
work?

Carefully read the corresponding chapter in the maintenance manual.

Contact sales department.

Stop the engine room ventilation.

Ventilate fuel oil booster unit.

18. What
will be
the
effect of
fouling
of the
turbine
cover
ring?

It will compensate for compressor wear.

It will increase lube oil consumption.

It will compensate for turbine wear.

It will stop the rotation of the turbine wheel.

19. The
thrust
bearing
on the
ABB
TPS
serie
TC is
of
floating
disc
type?

Yes, it's similar type than on TPL.

No, there isn't a thrust bearing.

No, the construction is different.

No, there is only auxiliary bearings.

20. What
happens
