ENGINE SYSTEM AND METHOD USING THE SAME
An engine may include a plurality of cylinders generating driving torque by burning fuel; a first intake valve disposed in a first intake line in which intake air supplied to the cylinders flows; a second intake valve disposed in a second intake line in which intake air supplied to the cylinders flows; a first electric supercharger disposed in the first intake line; a second electric supercharger disposed in the second intake line; a bypass valve disposed in a bypass line connecting the first intake line and the second intake line; and a controller for controlling the first electric supercharger and the second electric supercharger to be operated in a single mode, a serial mode, or a parallel mode based on an operating region of the engine determined by driving information.
Acoustic damper with resonator members arranged in-parallel
An acoustic damper includes an upstream wall with an inlet aperture and a downstream wall with an outlet aperture. The acoustic damper includes a first resonator that is supported by at least one of the upstream wall and the downstream wall. The acoustic damper also includes a second resonator that is supported by at least one of the upstream wall and the downstream wall. The first resonator and the second resonator are arranged in-parallel. Also, the first resonator and the second resonator are configured to cooperatively attenuate acoustic energy associated with a fluid flowing from the inlet aperture to the outlet aperture.

Inlet guide vanes for turbocharger compressors
A device and method for imparting a negative pre-whirl to an airstream entering a compressor wheel of a turbocharger. Using a plurality of radially positioned vanes through which the airstream to the compressor wheel communicates, a negative pre-whirl is imparted to the airstream entering the compressor wheel from an intake passage. This pre-whirl is imparted by positioning the vanes radially within an engageable ring and curving the vanes in a direction opposite the direction of rotation of the compressor wheel. Performance is further enhanced by a hub centrally positioned with the vanes where the hub includes a cavity sized to encapsulate a compressor nut and eliminate air turbulence therefrom.
