  2. Wastegate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastegate

    Inside the wastegate actuator, a spring acts to open the wastegate, and oil pressure acts to close the wastegate. On the oil output side of the wastegate actuator sits the density controller, an air-controlled oil valve which senses upper deck pressure and controls how fast oil can bleed from the wastegate actuator back to the engine. As the ...

  3. Camless piston engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camless_piston_engine

    A camless or free-valve piston engine is an engine that has poppet valves operated by means of electromagnetic, hydraulic, or pneumatic [1] actuators instead of conventional cams. Actuators can be used to both open and close valves, or to open valves closed by springs or other means.

  4. Boost controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_controller

    Regardless of the effectiveness of the boost controller, wastegate actuator springs that are too soft can cause the wastegate to open before desired. This due to the exhaust gas backpressure pushing against the wastegate valve itself, causing the valve to open of the actuator at all. Therefore, there is an upper limit to the effectiveness of a ...

  5. Variable-geometry turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-geometry_turbocharger

    This design has a lower flow rate compared to VNT types so a wastegate may be incorporated with this design. [5] VGTs may be controlled by a membrane vacuum actuator, electric servo, 3-phase electric actuation, hydraulic actuator, or pneumatic actuator using air brake pressure. Unlike fixed-geometry turbines, VGTs do not require a wastegate. [6]

  6. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    Air-actuated control valves each with a 4–20 mA "I to P" converter integral to a valve positioner. In this example each positioner is comparing the valve stem travel against control signal, and applying any correction. The opening or closing of automatic control valves is usually done by electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic actuators. Normally ...

  9. Engine control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_control_unit

    Wastegate control and anti-lag; Theft prevention by blocking ignition, in response to input from an immobiliser; In a camless piston engine (an experimental design not currently used in any production vehicles), the ECU has continuous control of when each of the intake and exhaust valves are opened and by how much.
