A compressor assembly is disclosed. The compressor assembly may have a compressor housing. The compressor assembly may also have a compressor impeller disposed within the compressor housing. Further, the compressor assembly may have a bearing housing attached to the compressor housing. The compressor assembly may also have a diffuser ring disposed between the compressor housing and the bearing housing. In addition, the compressor assembly may have at least one tab. The tab may extend radially outward from the diffuser ring. The tab may be configured to engage with a recess in the compressor housing. The compressor assembly may also have at least one fastener. The fastener may be configured to attach the diffuser ring and the compressor housing.

A rotary machine includes an impeller which is attached to one end portion in an axial direction of a rotating shaft; and a bearing which is attached to the rotating shaft on a rear surface side of the impeller. The impeller includes a cylindrical boss portion, a hub portion, and a blade portion. A rear surface of the hub portion is provided with a recessed portion recessed toward the one end side from an end edge on the rear surface side of the hub portion in the axial direction. The other end in the axial direction of the boss portion is disposed inside the recessed portion, and an end surface on the one end side of the bearing is disposed inside the recessed portion.

Methods and systems are provided for selecting a location for water injection during a water injection event based on ambient temperature and humidity, as well as engine operating conditions. In one example, a method may include injecting water upstream of a charge air cooler in response to operating the cooler in heater mode and injecting water downstream of the cooler in response to operating the cooler in cooler mode. Further, the method may include operating the cooler in heater mode based on dry, cold ambient conditions and a dilution demand and operating the cooler in cooler mode based on engine boost conditions and engine knock.

A method of suppressing shaft vibration of a turbocharger capable of being driven by a motor includes: a specific-vibration-state determination step of determining whether a rotor shaft of the turbocharger is in a specific vibration state in which a magnitude of shaft vibration of the rotor shaft is, or is likely to be, greater than a predetermined magnitude; an excited state determination step of determining whether the motor is in an excited state in which an exciting voltage is applied to the motor; and a vibration suppression execution step of applying the exciting voltage to the motor if it is determined that the rotor shaft is in the specific vibration state in the specific-vibration-state determination step and it is determined that the motor is not in the excited state in the excited state determination step.

A turbine wheel (1) of an exhaust-gas turbocharger (2), formed from a titanium aluminide material, having a wheel back (7) which is of closed configuration as viewed from an axial direction (A) and which has an outer contour (17), a hub (3) which extends from the wheel back (7) and which tapers along the axial direction (A), and a multiplicity of turbine blades (4) which extend from the wheel back (7) and from the hub (3) and which blades extend outward in a radial direction (R), as far as a connection region outer diameter (DAB) at least in a connection region (5). The wheel back (7) has, in an outer region (11) adjoining the connection region (5), a wheel back outer diameter (DRR) which is greater than or equal to the connection region outer diameter (DAB).

A turbocharger assembly can include a shaft sleeve that includes a bore that extends between a compressor end and a turbine end, outer threads that extend to a first axial position from the compressor end, and an outer shoulder at a second, greater axial position from the compressor end; a lock nut that includes inner threads that mate with the outer threads of the shaft sleeve and an axial length that is less than a distance between the compressor end and the first axial position; and a bearing assembly that includes at least one inner race axially located by the outer shoulder of the shaft sleeve and axially located by the lock nut.
