ABSTRACT:
A sequential-type, two-stage supercharging system (1) having a high-pressure-stage turbocharger (6) and a low-pressure-stage turbocharger (5), in which high-pressure-stage exhaust gas bypass passages (6d,6e) for bypassing a high-pressure-stage turbine (6t) is formed by both the first bypass passage (6d) having a small-diameter valve (6f) and the second bypass passage (6e) having a large-diameter valve (6g) with a diameter greater than that of the small-diameter valve (6f). The effective valve area of the small-diameter valve (6f) is set to 9.5%-26.5% of the passage cross-sectional area required when exhaust gas is at its maximum total flow rate. This allows, in medium speed/medium load operation, fine EGR rate control and air-fuel ratio control.
