An improved turbocharged internal combustion engine, having an air intake system that avoids compressor surge. A positive displacement blower is installed on the air intake line between the compressor and the engine cylinders. The blower has variable speed control so that its speed may be modulated. A controller controls the speed of the blower, such that the average pressure ratio across the blower is 1.0 across each engine cycle.

A throttle valve for a centrifugal compressor includes a body having a central passage and one or more diverter flow paths. The central passage is formed by an inner surface of the body, each diverter flow path has an inlet and an outlet, and the one or more diverter flow paths are configured to induce a swirl within a fluid flow through the central passage while a portion of the fluid flow passes through the one or more diverter flow paths. The throttle valve also includes at least one blade disposed within the central passage. The at least one blade is configured to direct the portion of the fluid flow to the inlets of the one or more diverter flow paths while the at least one blade is in a partially open position.

Provided herein is internal combustion engine system including: an internal combustion engine; a turbocharger turbine operatively connected to a turbocharger compressor; an air intake system; an exhaust gas system; an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) conduit; an EGR valve; and a turbomachine arranged in the EGR conduit. Further, the EGR valve and the turbomachine are positioned in relation to each other in the EGR conduit such that a flow of high pressure exhaust gas through the EGR conduit towards the air intake system reaches the EGR valve before reaching the turbomachine; an additional exhaust gas conduit is arranged between the EGR conduit and a point of the exhaust system downstream the turbocharger turbine so as to allow exhaust gas to flow.

A fluid compressor device includes a housing and a rotating group supported for rotation within the housing about an axis. The device also includes a controller for an e-machine of a turbomachine having a rotating group that is supported for rotation about an axis including a support structure, a first bus bar that is elongate and that extends about the axis, a second bus bar that is elongate and that extends about the axis, the second bus bar stacked on the first bus bar in an axial direction with respect to the axis, and a fastener arrangement that attaches the first bus bar and the second bus bar to the support structure.

A controller for an aftertreatment system coupled to an engine is configured to: in response to receiving an engine shutdown signal, determine an estimated amount of ammonia stored on a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst included in the aftertreatment system; in response to determining that the estimated amount of ammonia stored in the SCR catalyst is less than an ammonia storage threshold, cause flow of a heated gas towards the SCR catalyst; cause insertion of reductant into an exhaust gas flowing through the aftertreatment system; and in response to determining that the estimated amount of ammonia stored in the SCR catalyst is equal to or greater than the ammonia storage threshold, cause shutdown of the engine.
