A two-stroke engine with a supercharger is provided that can prevent occurrence of abnormal combustion under high load and can improve fuel efficiency when compression self-ignition combustion is carried out under low load, and spark ignition combustion is carried out under high load. When an operation state of an engine body is in a high-load side operation range, an intake variable valve mechanism and an exhaust variable valve mechanism are actuated to retard at least closing timing of an intake valve and at least opening timing of an exhaust valve from those in the case where the operation state of the engine body is in a low-load side operation range at the same engine speed as the engine speed detected by engine speed detection means while particular conditions are satisfied.

A control device for an engine is provided, which includes variable intake and exhaust valve operating mechanisms, a supercharger provided to an intake passage and configured to boost intake air introduced into a cylinder, and a controller. The controller drives the supercharger when the engine operates in a boosted range. The controller controls the variable intake and exhaust valve operating mechanisms so that a valve overlap period during which intake and exhaust valves open simultaneously is formed, when the engine operates in a low-speed boosted range of the boosted range where the engine speed is less than a reference speed. The controller controls the variable exhaust valve operating mechanism so that the open timing of the exhaust valve is more advanced when the engine operates in a high-speed boosted range of the boosted range where the engine speed is greater than or equal to the reference speed.

A compressor like unit which can be attached to an internal combustion engine controls the amount of the air mass that passes through its cylinder to the internal combustion engine based on the engine load condition requirement at a given time replacing this way the throttle device function and creating thus a throttle-less internal combustion engine. The compressor can be built in different ways and can function as one or multiple units attached directly to the engine through its crankshaft or a gear box or by other means.

A control system for a turbocharger of a vehicle includes an enable module, an error module, a reduction module, and a boost module. The enable module is configured to: enable reduction in a boost pressure setpoint of a compressor of the turbocharger based on whether a fault exists, load on an engine, and a compressor outlet temperature; and generate an enable signal indicating whether reduction in the boost pressure setpoint is enabled. The error module configured to determine a difference between the compressor outlet temperature and a predetermined limit. The reduction control module is configured to, in response to the enable signal indicating reduction in the boost pressure setpoint is enabled, reduce the boost pressure setpoint based on the difference. The boost module is configured to adjust boost pressure output of the compressor based on the boost pressure setpoint.

A turbo compressor of an exhaust gas recirculation of an internal combustion engine, with a compressor housing, a compressor rotor, a shaft that is coupled to the compressor rotor and mounted in the compressor housing, a piston ring seal to prevent an exhaust gas blow-by flow in the direction of bearings, and a labyrinth seal, which seen in the direction of the exhaust gas blow-by flow, is positioned upstream of the piston ring seal.

A rotating group for a supercharger includes a driving shaft and rotor assembly including a driving shaft connected to a driving rotor. A driven shaft and rotor assembly include a driven shaft connected to a driven rotor. The driving rotor is in intermeshing engagement with the driven rotor to rotate in a pair of transversely overlapping cylindrical chambers defined in a rotor housing of the supercharger. A driving shaft bearing is disposed in a bottom plate to radially and axially support the driving shaft for rotating the driving rotor in the rotor housing at a first predetermined axial location of the driving rotor from the bottom plate. A driven shaft bearing is disposed in the bottom plate to radially and axially support the driven shaft for rotating the driven rotor in the rotor housing at a second predetermined axial location of the driven rotor from the bottom plate.

A determination is made whether or not the condition that the amount V of condensed water remaining in an intake passage has exceeded a predetermined upper limit has been met, based on an input parameter associated with the amount V. If, during an engine operation in an unsupercharged mode, a determination is made that the condition has been met, a condensed water discharging operation of a supercharger is performed such that the condensed water remaining is discharged to a cylinder of the engine through operation of the supercharger.
