The present application relates to an abnormality determination device for a variable geometry turbocharger having a nozzle mechanism capable of changing a flow path area of exhaust gas with an actuator. The abnormality determination device includes: a first detection part configured to be capable of detecting at least one of a load of the actuator or supply energy to the actuator; and a determination part configured to determine that an abnormality is present, if a detection result by the first detection part is out of an allowable range corresponding to an operational state of the variable geometry turbocharger.

A leak detection system for an engine air system is provided. The leak detection system may include a plurality of pressure sensors configured to retrieve pressure data from the engine air system, a plurality of temperature sensors configured to retrieve temperature data from the engine air system, and a controller in communication with each of the pressure sensors and the temperature sensors. The controller may be configured to receive the pressure data and the temperature data, compare the pressure data and the temperature data to one or more predefined data trends, and identify a leak within the engine air system based on the comparison.

A recirculation system for a power system is disclosed. The recirculation system may determine, according to a sequence for individually activating a plurality of turbochargers of an engine, that a designated turbocharger of the plurality of turbochargers is to be activated. The recirculation system may cause a recirculation valve of a recirculation line to open to increase an airflow between an intake manifold and a compressor of the designated turbocharger.
