1. 1. Electrically Assisted Turbocharger: Modelling And Control Strategy

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Erik Vandor; Gabriel Ehlin; [2022]
   Keywords : EAT; VGT; VNT; Hybrid powertrain; electric turbocharger;

   Abstract : A major cause of CO2 emissions today is fossil fuel vehicles, and lowering these emissions is of key importance, resulting in increasing electrification and hybridisation nowadays. Turbochargers have been used for a long time to recycle exhaust gas heat losses to improve engine performance by compressing the intake air. READ MORE

6. 5. Variable Stator Nozzle Angle Control in a Turbocharger Inlet

   University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Author : Enrique Carrasco Mora; [2015]
   Keywords : Turbocharger Radial Turbine Blade Nozzle;

   Abstract : Turbochargers are becoming an essential device in internal combustion engines as they boost the intake air with more pressure in order to increase the power output. These devices are normally designed for a single steady design point but the pulsating flow delivered from the internal combustion engine is everything but steady. READ MORE
