Engine
A marine engine includes a first turbocharger, a first intercooler, a second turbocharger, a second intercooler, an oil filter, and a top cover. The first turbocharger and the second turbocharger supply air by using an exhaust gas. The first intercooler and the second intercooler cool gases having passed through the turbochargers, respectively. The top cover is a cover arranged in an upper region of the marine engine. These devices are arranged so as not to overlap one another when seen in the thickness direction of the top cover.
Compressor arrangement for an internal combustion engine and method for operating a compressor arrangement
A compressor arrangement for an internal combustion engine, having a compressor which is arranged in a compressor housing and has a low pressure side and a high pressure side, and having a negative pressure provision unit, which has a propellant channel that is fluidically connected, on the one hand, via a propellant inlet fitting to the high pressure side of the compressor and, on the other hand, via a propellant outlet fitting to the low pressure side of the compressor and has a nozzle, and which has a negative pressure channel opening into the propellant channel fluidically between the propellant inlet fitting and the propellant outlet fitting.
Multi-stage turbocharger system with off-engine low pressure stage
A turbocharged internal combustion engine system includes at least one high pressure turbocharger system mounted on-engine and at least one low pressure turbocharger system mounted off-engine. An intercooler can further be mounted off-engine with the low pressure turbocharger and an aftercooler can be mounted on-engine with the high pressure turbocharger.
Exhaust-gas turbocharger
An exhaust-gas turbocharger (1) having a turbine housing (2), having a compressor housing (3), having a bearing housing (4), which has a bearing housing axis (L), and having a connecting device (5), for connecting the bearing housing (4) to the compressor housing (3) and/or the turbine housing (2). The connecting device has a plurality of connecting elements (6) which each have a connecting element end face (7). The number of bores (8) in the compressor housing (3) corresponds to the number of connecting elements (6). The bores (8) and the connecting elements (6) inserted into the bores (8) are arranged at an acute angle (α) with respect to the bearing housing axis (L), and the connecting element end faces (7) rest on an associated bearing surface (9) of the bearing housing (4) and/or turbine housing (2).

METHOD FOR OPERATING A SUPERCHARGED INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
A supercharged internal combustion engine has cylinder groups with plural cylinders and plural exhaust gas turbochargers. Exhaust gas can be fed to at least one first exhaust gas turbocharger from first outlet valves of the cylinders of the first and second cylinder groups via at least one first exhaust manifold. Exhaust gas can be fed to at least one second exhaust gas turbocharger from second outlet valves of cylinders of the first and second cylinder groups via a second exhaust manifold. At low rotational speeds and/or in part load and/or non-steady state operation, exhaust gas can be fed via the first exhaust manifolds that are connected to the first outlet valves per cylinder group to a turbine of the first exhaust gas turbocharger in flows that can be divided in the inflow region of the turbine, while the second exhaust gas turbocharger is inactive.
Intake Air Boost System for Two-Cycle Engine Having Turbo-Supercharger
An air boost system for a two-cycle engine, such as an EMD engine, which operates with a gear-driven turbo-supercharger. The turbo-supercharger is undersized for the engine, such that it is insufficient to provide air flow for a target air-fuel ratio above a pre-determined mid-load threshold. An additional turbocharger is installed in parallel with the turbo-supercharger, such that the intake manifold may receive air intake from only the turbo-supercharger or from both the turbo-supercharger and the turbocharger. In operation, the turbocharger is active only at loads above the predetermined load threshold.
Methods and systems for a charge air cooler
Various systems are provided for a charge-air cooler system. In one example, a system includes a turbocharger system having at least one compressor and one turbine and configured to provide charge air to an engine. The system also includes a charge-air cooler system having at least one charge-air cooler arranged below the at least one compressor, a turbocharger bracket arranged directly below the charge-air cooler system and shaped to mount the charge-air cooler and the turbocharger system to the engine, and a stator adapter physically coupling an alternator to the engine. The stator adapter includes an accessibility window arranged below the charge-air cooler system. The at least one charge-air cooler is closer to the accessibility window than the turbocharger system.
Exhaust-gas turbocharger
An exhaust-gas turbocharger (1) with a bearing housing (2), a shaft (3) mounted in the bearing housing (2), a compressor wheel (5) arranged on the shaft (3) and a turbine wheel (4) arranged on the shaft (3), a housing component (7) which surrounds the compressor wheel (5) or the turbine wheel (4), and a sealing ring (14) between the bearing housing (2) and the housing component (7), wherein the sealing ring (14) is, in order to impart its sealing action, compressed in a direction perpendicular to the shaft (3).
