A turbocharger according to an embodiment is a turbocharger including a turbine housing for housing a turbine wheel rotary driven by an exhaust gas, a bearing housing for housing a rotational shaft on which the turbine wheel is mounted, the bearing housing being adjacent to the turbine housing, and a wastegate portion including a bypass passage and a valve body, the bypass passage allowing the exhaust gas to bypass the turbine wheel, the valve body being able to adjust a flow rate of the exhaust gas flowing through the bypass passage. In the turbine housing, a scroll passage for supplying the exhaust gas to the turbine wheel is formed by casting, at least on a radially outer side of the turbine wheel. A fastening portion for fastening the turbine housing and the bearing housing is disposed on a radially outer side of the scroll passage.

A turbocharger includes a turbine housing that is a cast component, a turbine scroll passage, a discharge port, and a discharge port defining member. The turbine scroll passage surrounds the circumference of a turbine chamber defined in the turbine housing and the circumference of the turbine chamber. Exhaust gas that has passed through the turbine chamber is conducted to the discharge port. The discharge port defining member constitutes a wall surface of the discharge port. The discharge port defining member includes a tubular main body wall and an outer circumferential edge. The main body wall constitutes a wall surface of the discharge port. The outer circumferential edge extends from the distal end of the main body wall and outward in the radial direction of the impeller shaft. The outer circumferential edge is fixed between the turbine housing and a downstream exhaust pipe, which is connected to the discharge port.

An exhaust system includes an exhaust manifold structured to be fluidly coupled to an engine. A turbocharger including a turbine housing is fluidly coupled to the exhaust manifold. An exhaust pulse converter includes a first portion integral to the exhaust manifold and a second portion integral to the turbine housing. The exhaust pulse converter is structured to reduce engine pumping losses by reducing cross-talk of exhaust blowdown events from the engine.

A turbine housing includes an outer housing portion which includes an inner wall internally forming a spiral space, a first heat shield core which separates the spiral space into a scroll flow passage where an exhaust gas flows and a heat shield space positioned on a side of the inner wall, the first heat shield core being disposed so as to face the inner wall in the spiral space, a variable nozzle unit for adjusting a flow of the exhaust gas from the scroll flow passage toward an impeller, the variable nozzle unit being disposed on a side opposite to the outer housing portion across the first heat shield core in an axial direction, and at least one annular seal portion disposed between the first heat shield core and the outer housing portion in the axial direction.

A diffuser and deswirl flow structure includes a plurality of tube structures with an outer wall that is hollow and elongate and that extends between a first portion and a second portion. The plurality of tube structures is disposed in an annular arrangement about the longitudinal axis. The flow structure also includes a plurality of flow passages extending through the tube structures. The plurality of flow passages extend from the first portion to the second portion, respectively. The plurality of flow passages respectfully include a diffuser portion, which is proximate the first portion and configured to diffuse a fluid flow from a compressor wheel. The plurality of flow passages respectfully include a deswirl portion, which is proximate the second portion and configured to deswirl the fluid flow from the diffuser portion. The outer wall defines the diffuser portion and the deswirl portion. The outer wall is self-supporting.

A turbine includes: a turbine impeller accommodated in an accommodation space; two turbine scroll flow paths connected to the accommodation space; a first wastegate flow path (wastegate flow path) opened to one of the turbine scroll flow paths (second turbine scroll flow path) and separated from the other turbine scroll flow path (first turbine scroll flow path), and a valve for opening and closing the first wastegate flow path.

A turbine comprises a housing defining a turbine chamber with a turbine wheel supported for rotation about an axis. The housing further defines first and second inlet volutes which each spiral radially inwards and extend from a respective inlet to adjoin the turbine chamber and a volute tongue for each inlet volute. The tongue of the first volute radially separating a downstream portion of the first volute adjacent the chamber from an upstream portion of the first volute adjacent said inlet of the first volute, and the tongue of the second volute radially separating a downstream portion of the second volute adjacent the chamber from an upstream portion of the second volute adjacent said inlet of the second volute. The tongues having a turbine scroll tongue overlap which is substantially zero or positive; and the first volute tongue is angularly spaced about the axis from the second volute tongue.
