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.
