ABSTRACT:
A supercharger has a high pressure engine exhaust gas passage, a control gas duct communicating with the high pressure passage and a valve for opening and closing communication between the high pressure passage and the control gas duct. A turbine rotor is mounted at one end of driveshaft; a compressor rotor is mounted at the opposite axial end. Air at ambient conditions is admitted to the compressor rotor which is driven through the driveshaft from the turbine. The air is compressed and pumped into the intake manifold of a spark ignition engine. The valve operates to increase the flow rate of control gas at low engine speeds and to decrease the flow rate of control gas at high engine speeds. The control gas enters the mainstream of exhaust gas that flows in the turbine inlet duct thus restricting the area of the inlet duct when engine speed is low and increasing the exhaust gas flow rate when engine speed is high.
