ABSTRACT
In the present work the impeller of a turbocharger was designed with three different materials (Nickel, Structural Steel, and Titanium). The investigation can be done using CREO and ANSYS software. The CREO software is used for modeling the impeller and analysis is done in ANSYS. A modest attempt has been made to investigate the effect of temperature, pressure and induced stresses on the impeller. A structural analysis has been carried out to investigate the various stresses, strains and displacements of the impeller. A thermal analysis has been carried out to investigate the total heat flux and direction heat flux. Based on the results the Nickel alloy exposed better properties and is recommended for its further usage in impeller of a turbocharger.
