A turbocharger control system includes a turbine; a fluid source of a pressurized fluid; an input valve fluidly coupled between the fluid source and an input of the turbine; a bypass valve fluidly coupled between the fluid source and an output of the turbine; a rotating machine operatively coupled to the turbine and configured to move a working fluid; and a control system communicably coupled to the input valve and the bypass valve. The control system is configured to perform operations including determining a level of the pressurized fluid in the fluid source; determining at least one of a flow rate or a pressure of a working fluid moved by the rotating machine; and operating the input valve and the bypass valve to change an operating state of the turbine from a first operating state to a second operating state.

A controller for a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine, and a device for detecting a fire in a fluid conduit, the device having a fluid state sensor for detecting a state variable of a fluid that is conducted in the fluid conduit, are provided. The determination of a fire situation is performed in a manner dependent on a signal of the fluid state sensor.

A turbocharged engine system with electric compressor arranged to inject a compressed fluid into the exhaust subsystem upstream of the turbine of the turbocharger such that, in use, the compressed fluid injected by the electric compressor into the exhaust subsystem maintains the speed of or accelerates the turbine, thereby maintaining or increasing the boost pressure supplied to the turbocharged internal combustion engine. A method of controlling the boost pressure supplied to an internal combustion engine by a turbocharger, said method comprising the steps of: producing a stream of compressed fluid; injecting the stream of compressed fluid into an exhaust stream of the internal combustion engine to produce a pressure-boosted exhaust stream; and controlling the speed of a turbine of the turbocharger using the pressure-boosted exhaust stream to control the boost pressure supplied to the internal combustion engine

A supercharger for a vehicle includes: a first compression part to compress outside air; a second compression part to compress the outside air independently of the first compression part; a first valve module to selectively switch a path of the air compressed by the first compression part to a power source of the vehicle or the second compression part and to selectively guide or shut off the air compressed by the second compression part to the power source; and a second valve module to selectively shut off a flow of the air compressed by the first compression part into the second compression part or a flow of the outside air into the second compression part.

An engine system is disclosed. The engine system may have an engine having an accessory end and a drive end opposite the accessory end. The engine system may also have a turbocharger arrangement located adjacent the accessory end. The turbocharger arrangement may be configured to receive exhaust from the engine and to deliver compressed air to the air cooling arrangement. Further, the engine system may have an air cooling arrangement located adjacent the accessory end and configured to deliver fresh air to the engine. In addition, the engine system may have a mixing duct extending from the accessory end to the drive end and configured to receive the exhaust from the turbocharger arrangement. The engine system may also have an after-treatment system located adjacent the drive end. The after-treatment system may be configured to receive the exhaust from the mixing duct and to discharge the exhaust to an ambient.
