An exhaust manifold for use with an internal combustion engine including a body, one or more fluid passageways defined by the body, and a valve in fluid communication with at least one of the one or more fluid passageways. The valve of the exhaust manifold being adjustable between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The exhaust manifold also includes an actuator in operable communication with the valve and configured to adjust the valve between the open and closed configurations, and a heat shield at least partially positioned between the actuator and the one or more fluid passageways.

A rotary turbine bypass valve comprises a valve chamber and a valve rotor. The chamber is positioned at a junction of an inlet port, an outlet port and a bypass port. The inlet port is configured to receive exhaust gas, the outlet port is configured to fluidly communicate with a turbine inlet, and the bypass port is configured to fluidly communicate with an exhaust aftertreatment device.

The rotor comprises a first and second recess, the first recess defining a primary flow passage, the second recess defining a secondary flow passage. The rotor is rotatable between a first position in which the rotor substantially blocks exhaust gas flow through the bypass port and a second position in which the rotor permits such. The secondary flow passage is configured to selectively permit fluid communication between the inlet port and the bypass port when the primary flow passage is partially blocked.

A turbocharger and method of controlling the same includes a turbine housing comprising an inlet and an outlet, turbine wheel coupled to a shaft. The turbine housing comprising a first scroll and a second scroll for fluidically coupling the inlet and the turbine wheel. The first scroll has a first end adjacent the inlet and a second end adjacent the turbine wheel. The second scroll has a third end adjacent the inlet and a fourth end adjacent the turbine wheel. An exhaust gas diverter valve is coupled to the turbine housing restricting flow into the first scroll or the second scroll.

A turbocharger includes a bearing housing, a turbine housing, a turbine chamber formed in the turbine housing, a turbine impeller rotating integrally with the impeller shaft by the exhaust gas flowing into the turbine chamber, a turbine scroll passage formed in the turbine housing, a communication passage, and a bearing housing side plate made of sheet metal and forming wall surfaces of the turbine scroll passage and the communication passage on the bearing housing side. The bearing housing side plate has an inner peripheral part of the bearing housing side plate is a stationary part relative to the bearing housing, and an outer peripheral end portion of the bearing housing side plate is a free end. The bearing housing side plate has an outer peripheral side surface of the bearing housing side plate is spaced from a first facing member that faces the outer peripheral wall side surface.

A turbocharger includes a turbine housing including an interior surface defining a turbine housing interior. The interior surface extends between a turbine housing inlet and a turbine housing outlet. The turbine housing also includes a wastegate duct disposed downstream of the turbine housing inlet and defining a wastegate channel. The turbocharger also includes a valve seat disposed about the wastegate channel, with the valve seat having a valve seat plane extending along the valve seat. The turbocharger further includes a wastegate assembly including a valve element engageable with the valve seat. The wastegate channel extends along a channel axis, and the channel axis is obliquely oriented with respect to the valve seat plane such that the wastegate channel and the valve element are configured to direct exhaust gas to a catalytic converter.

A turbocharger and method of controlling the same includes a turbine housing comprising an inlet and an outlet, turbine wheel coupled to a shaft. The turbine housing comprising a first scroll and a second scroll for fluidically coupling the inlet and the turbine wheel. The first scroll has a first end adjacent the inlet and a second end adjacent the turbine wheel. The second scroll has a third end adjacent the inlet and a fourth end adjacent the turbine wheel. An exhaust gas diverter valve is coupled to the turbine housing restricting flow into the first scroll or the second scroll.

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.

Methods and systems are provided for a branch communication valve in a twin turbocharger system. A branch communication valve may be positioned adjacent to a dividing wall separating a first scroll and a second scroll of the twin turbocharger. In an open position, the branch communication valve increases fluid communication between the first scroll and the second scroll and in a closed position, the branch communication valve decreases fluid communication between the first scroll and the second scroll.

A system and method of controlling a turbocharged engine system includes receiving a boost mode selection signal and controlling the turbocharged engine system in response to the boost mode selection signal.
