Supercharging
Supercharging
An engine that uses normal vacuum to draw in air (air-fuel mixture) is called
normally aspirated (not supercharged). Use of supercharger to deliver an air
or an air-fuel mixture to the engine cylinder at a pressure higher than
atmospheric is called supercharging.

The term supercharger usually applies to an air pressurizing pump which is
driven mechanically by the engine crankshaft through gears or belts or
chains and shafts. These mechanical linkages consume a lot of power from
the engine. AS a result, these types of superchargers are not popular for
passenger car engines.
