An exhaust outlet elbow includes: a body having an outer wall and an interior wall, the interior wall defining, at least in part, an interior chamber; a connecting surface located above the interior chamber; and an array of threaded holes located about the connecting surface, wherein the threaded holes terminate in the body. A method of manufacturing an exhaust outlet elbow includes the steps of: forming a body having an outer wall and an interior wall, the interior wall defining, at least in part an interior chamber; forming an connecting surface located between the interior and outer walls; and forming an array of threaded holes in the connecting surface.

The modular complex for production of effective power through combustion of liquid and gaseous fuels comprises two modules: Module for production of heat in a single combustion chamber for burning various liquid and gaseous fuel types, connected to the inlet of gas turbocharger for production of energy carrier (compressed air) with flow rate and pressure required for production of planned power and frequency of rotation; Module for transformation of carrier energy into effective power with mechanical system of variable volumes and distribution system for charging and discharging of air, comprising distribution plate with straight shaft with slots to connect compressed air from cylinder filling channels through the motion of crankgear pistons from top to bottom dead center and the channels for discharging of cylinders through the motion of pistons from bottom to top dead center, whereas low pressure and temperature values eliminate the necessity for cooling system, fuel injection system, gas distribution system and starters. The final result represents increment of effective efficiency of modular complex to over 60 percent, elimination of complicated systems, reduction of fuel consumption, materials and labor costs as well as toxic oxides and noise levels.

A turbocharger includes a two-stage serial compressor having first and second impellers, with a crossover duct for leading air from the first impeller into the second impeller for further compression. The compressor housing also defines a bypass duct from the crossover duct to the air discharge duct from the compressor, and a bypass valve disposed in the bypass duct. Under certain operating conditions (such as high-flow, low-pressure-ratio conditions) the bypass valve can be opened to bypass the second impeller, such that the compressor behaves like a single-stage compressor. At other operating conditions, the bypass valve is closed so that the compressor provides two-stage compression for higher pressure ratios.
