Naturally
Aspirated (engine)
A
naturally aspirated engine is one which gets its air supply at a
pressure consistent with the atmospheric conditions in which it
is being ran. It does not use a turbocharger, supercharger, or forced
'ram-air' induction to increase the amount of air in the combustion
chamber. Most regular family cars are naturally aspirated, and there
there are also some top level sports cars which also rely on natural
aspiration. Two benefits of natural aspiration are that it is easy
on the engine which prolongs life, and also power and torque delivery
is usually more progressive and steady. Especially when compared
to turbocharged engines.
