An engine system includes an engine with an intake manifold and an exhaust manifold, a turbocharger including a turbine in communication with the exhaust manifold and a compressor in communication with the intake manifold, and a regulator configured to control a flow of exhaust gas through the turbine. A controller of the engine system is operably connected with the regulator and is configured to monitor an engine load and an exhaust gas temperature during operation of the engine, identify a proscribed engine NOx emissions level based on the engine load and the exhaust gas temperature and, when the proscribed engine NOx emissions level is identified, modify the flow of exhaust gas through the turbine to reduce the energy extracted from the exhaust gas by the turbine and reduce a drive power provided to the compressor, thereby reducing a flow of intake air provided to the intake manifold by the compressor.

An engine system includes an internal combustion engine having an engine block with one or more piston-cylinder arrangements communicating with an intake manifold and an exhaust manifold, a charge air passageway to the intake manifold, and an exhaust gas passageway that receives exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold. The engine system also includes one or more turbochargers each including a compressor to compress charge air and output the compressed charge air to the charge air passageway and a turbine that receives exhaust gas from the exhaust gas passageway and drives the compressor in response to the exhaust gas passing through the turbine. An air pump is positioned downstream of the compressor that supplies a portion of the compressed charge air into the exhaust gas passageway upstream of the turbine, such that the turbine receives both exhaust gas and compressed charge air.

System and method using secondary air pump for secondary air injection into turbocharged internal combustion engine exhaust and for transiently augmenting engine boost pressure, including means for supressing surge of the secondary air pump

In a turbocharged internal combustion engine system including an eCompressor as a secondary air pump (SAP) for injecting air into an exhaust system of the ICE, controllable valves enable the turbocharger compressor and the SAP to provide two-stage compressed air to the intake of the ICE in certain operating conditions, or to feed the air via a secondary air injection line (SAI line) into the exhaust system in other conditions. A conduit is tapped off the discharge of the SAP and connects with discharge ducting from the turbocharger compressor, and an on/off valve configured for defined leakage in the “off” position controls flow through the conduit. When the air from the SAP is needed only for injection air, the leakage through the leaky valve into the intake system suppresses surge of the SAP.
