Turbocharger compressor bypass coaxial re-introduction system to optimize transient load response

A compressor bypass reintroduction system includes a compressor intake manifold and a bypass conduit. The compressor intake manifold defines a fluid plenum. The compressor intake manifold is engageable with a compressor. The bypass conduit extends into the fluid plenum and includes an ejector line. The ejector line is configured to be substantially collinear with the compressor and to discharge flow toward the compressor. In some embodiments, an outlet of the ejector is disposed proximate to an outlet of the fluid plenum that discharges flow into the compressor.

Vent Insert

A vent insert is disclosed for use with an automotive turbocharger system. The vent has a substantially cylindrical hollow tube with a first end for seating the vent and a second open end. The first end has a rim around an opening. The second end of the vent has an angled opening that faces away from the direction of the gas flow when the vent insert is operating within the turbocharger system. There are a plurality of protrusions extending outward from the outside surface of the vent to assist in keeping the vent insert in place in the turbocharger system.

Compressor outlet pressure control for improved engine speed stability and performance using compressor recirculation valve and turbocharger wastegate

Systems, methods and apparatus are disclosed for producing a target compressor outlet pressure that is based on a desired pressure differential across an intake throttle of an internal combustion engine and an intake manifold pressure by opening or closing a compressor recirculation valve and a turbocharger wastegate to commanded positions based on the target compressor outlet pressure.

Engine device

When an execution condition for a purge of supplying evaporated fuel gas to an intake pipe is met, a required purge ratio is set within a range equal to or higher than a lower-limit purge ratio, and a purge control valve is controlled using a driving duty based on the required purge ratio. In this case, when the execution condition is continuously met, an ejector pressure is estimated based on a pressure difference between a supercharging pressure and a pre-compressor pressure, and on the driving duty, and the lower-limit purge ratio is set based on a post-throttle-valve pressure and on the ejector pressure. The value of the lower-limit purge ratio is set to zero immediately after the execution condition switches from being not met to being met.

Method for Operating an Internal Combustion Engine of a Motor Vehicle
20230349315 · 2023-11-02 ·

A method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle. The internal combustion engine includes a combustion chamber, an intake tract, a compressor disposed in the intake tract, and a conduit element which is fluidly connected to the intake tract. The internal combustion engine is operable in a heating mode to heat at least a compressor housing of the compressor. In the heating mode a part of the air flowing through the intake tract and compressed by the compressor is returned to the intake tract by the conduit element. The method includes recording a temperature of the air in the intake tract upstream of the compressor by a sensor and comparing the temperature with a threshold value. When the temperature is lower than the threshold value, the internal combustion engine is operated in the heating mode.

Control unit for internal combustion engine system
11808227 · 2023-11-07 · ·

A control unit configured to control an electric turbocharger and an EGR valve. While an internal combustion engine is stopped, an oxygen-free period, which is a period during which oxygen surrounding an exhaust gas purifier used for an oxidation reaction runs out, is estimated based on a temperature of the exhaust gas purifier. Before entering the oxygen-free period, the EGR valve is opened and the electric turbocharger is driven. Air surrounding the exhaust gas purifier is replaced with fresh air. After replacement with the fresh air has been completed, the electric turbocharger is stopped.
