In 2010, Volvo started to experiment with electrically assisted turbochargers. The result was unveiled in 2014, a 450hp 2.0L High Performance Drive-E Powertrain Concept engine, which used a 48-volt electrical system for the electric booster. The engine has three turbos, with the electric "turbo" driving the exhaust turbines of the twin-turbo. [7]
The GM E-Turbo engine is a gasoline-fueled engine developed by General Motors as part of the company’s next-generation turbocharged engine family. The engine features a start-stop system , gasoline direct injection , an electric water pump and an electric turbocharger wastegate to optimize fuel efficiency .
Garrett Motion Inc., formerly Honeywell Transportation Systems and Honeywell Turbo Technologies, is an American company primarily involved in engineering, development and manufacturing of turbochargers and related forced induction systems for ground vehicles from small passenger cars to large trucks and industrial equipment and construction machinery.
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg sparred with Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade over electric vehicles (EV) during an interview on “Fox and Friends” Tuesday. “Is this an interview or a debate?
Using a turbocharger spool valve to increase exhaust gas flow speed to the (twin-scroll) turbine; Using a butterfly valve to force exhaust gas through a smaller passage in the turbo inlet; Electric turbochargers [51] and hybrid turbochargers. A similar phenomenon that is often mistaken for turbo lag is the boost threshold. This is where the ...
The F-series EcoBoost 3.5L V6 uses two BorgWarner K03 turbochargers which can spin up to 170,000 rpm and provide up to 100 kPa (15 psi) of boost. The transverse EcoBoost 3.5L V6 uses two Garrett GT1549L turbochargers and provides up to 76 kPa (11 psi) of boost. The turbos are set up in a twin-turbo configuration.
A turbo-compound engine is a reciprocating engine that employs a turbine to recover energy from the exhaust gases. Instead of using that energy to drive a turbocharger as found in many high-power aircraft engines , the energy is instead sent to the output shaft to increase the total power delivered by the engine.
An electric turbo-compound (ETC) system is defined where a turbine coupled to a generator (turbogenerator) is located in the exhaust gas flow of a reciprocating engine to harvest waste heat energy and convert it into electrical power.
