  • Preface to the Supplement

    The development in turbocharging of internal combustion engines

    has proceeded so rapidly that the publishers and I have decided

    to add a supplement to the book "Supercharging of Internal Com-

    bustion Engines" published in 1978. Since the greatest progress

    has been made in the field of turbocharging of automotive engines,

    this supplement is confined to this area. When the first edition

    of the German original "Auf ladung von Verbrennungsmotoren" was

    published in 1975 turbocharging of automotive engines was insig-

    nificant except for some types for racing drives. Today nearly

    all large car manufacturing companies have turbocharged spark ig-

    nition or Diesel engines for commercial vehicles on the market or

    to be developed.

    The author hopes that this supplement will be welcome as a useful

    addition to the basic publication.

  • 12. Problems of turbocharging of automotive engines 12.1 Petrol engines

    As mentioned in section 2.3, the supercharging of spark ignition

    aero-engines was already highly advanced at the time when they

    were superseded by the gas turbine. During and after World War I,

    the engines were mechanically supercharged, around World War 11

    exhaust turbocharged. There was, however, little incentive to

    supercharge automobile engines other than those in sports- and

    racing cars, because it was simpler and ehe aper to obtain more

    power by increasing the size of the engine.

    The first exhaust-turbocharged spark ignition engines for motor

    cars became commercially available in 1962. Even though a con:,~ider

    able number of such engines, around 60 000 for the Chevrolet Cor-

    vair alone /12.1/, were built in the USA between 1962 and 1966,

    they were not a breakthrough. Apparently, acceleration was un-

    satisfactory, because instead of an improvement in torque backup,

    an increase in peak output from 74 to 110 kW, later to 130 kW

    was preferred. As compared to aero engines, the turbocharging of

    car engines poses some additional problems, while at the same

    time some factors favouring the supercharging of aero engines are

    lost, as mentioned already in section 11.1.

    The additional requirements for car engines are:

    - Torque backup with fallinq speed to overcome increased

    resistance at inclines without excessive ge ar charging, or to

    allow locking of transmissions with hydraulic torque converters

    at low engine speeds

    Fast response to an increase in power demand without noticeable

    delay, i.e. quick rise in boost pressure

    - Large engine speed range (see Fig. 12.1)

    - Small space requirements,low weight and in par~icular low cost.

    One condition for the successfull introduction of turbocharged

    car engines is the availability of small inexpensive high-speed

    turbochargers with high efficiencies even at small flow rates, a wide operating range and reliability at high exhaust tempera-

    tures. The development of rotors with backward swept blades has

    led to an improvement in both operating range and efficiency.

    The increase in stresses with the large tip speeds required by

    higher pressure ratios has been compensated for by the use of bet-

    Today, practically

    all of the larger automobile manufacturers are developing turbo-

    charged engines, even though commercial introduction is not rushed.

    Some of the models presented at the International Automobile

    Exhibition 1979 in Frankfurt were put on sale in 1980 only /12.3/.

    As compared to the compression ignition engine, there are three

    main obstacles to the reliable supercharging of spark ignition

    engines for use in automobiles: combustion knock, exhaust temper-

    ature and mixture control.

    12.1.1 Measures dealing with combustion knock

    The most common type of knock is caused by end gas explosion in

    regionsof the combustion chamber to which the flame front has not

    yet travelled. As the end gas is compressed and heated by the ad-

    vancing flame front, the prereactions lead to a sudden combustion

    in the end zone. Knocking combustion causes a noticeable increase

    in heat transfer, which can destroy the components of the combus-

    3

  • tion chamber which are already highly thermally loaded. The ten-

    dency to knock can be reduced by retarded ignition timing, but

    this reduces power and increases fuel consumption and exhaust

    temperature.

    Fig. 12.5 shows the relationship between compression ratio and

    permissible boost pressure at the knock limit for a given engine,

    indicating the necessity of a reduced compression ratio at larger

    boost pressures. The resultant lowering of efficiency can only be

    compensated by secondary measures such as optimization of mixture

    control and ignition timing and by the relatively 10'..,rer friction

    losses at higher mean effective pressures. Fig. 12.4, but even

    more so Fig. 12.5 indicate the importance of charge air cooling.

  • For example, at the low speed of 2500 rer/min and an absolute

    boost pressure of 1,5 bar, a compression ratio of 6 is possible

    at the knock limit; with charge air cooling to 60 0 C this could be

    increased to 8. Charge air cooling is also advantageous with re-

    gard to power output and fuel consumption at high speeds because

    of the permissible advance of ignition timing as shown in Fig.12.6.

    Although charge air cooling in automobiles requires extra efforts,

    there is a growing awareness that these efforts pay back in the

    form of increased power and component life and of reduced fuel

    consumption and emissions, unless there are other restrietions.

    Such restrietions could be limited space not allowing an effective

    installation of the charge air cooler in a given vehicle, or the

    low performance of a charge air cooler in the free air flow at low

    vehicle velocity and high output requirement, for example on long

    slopes with heavy trailers. Despite these restrietions, it cannot

    be overemphasized that heat transferred in the charge air cooler

    does no longer have to be transferred in the engine to the cooling

    water; that is to say, the sum of heat transferred in charge air

    cooler and engine is constant for a given output. This rule has

    5

  • been confirmed by many experiments. In a fresh design, it may

    under certain circumstances even be advantageous to increase the

    charge air cooler at the expense of the engine radiator, provided

    that the cooling effect is sufficient under all operating condi-

    tions. This is possible for example by means of a temperature-con-

    trolled electrically driven cooling fan. The heat energy already

    transferred in the charge air cooler has a beneficial effect on

    the knock limit and the thermal loading, and thereby on the power

    output and the engine reliability.

    There are four different methods available for eooling the charge

    air:

    1. Charge air-water cooler in the cooling water eircuit of the engine

    2. Charge air-water cooler with aseparate eooling water circuit

    3. Charge air-air cooler in front of or adjacent to the engine radiator

    4. Charge air-air cooler with separate fan powered by a boost-driven air turbine (Fig. 12.7).

    The cooling system has to be judged according to effectiveness,

    size and weight, space availability, cost, reliability, mainte-

    nance requirements and power requirement. The simplest system

    6

    8

  • according to 1, is also the least effective, even if the cooling

    water coming from the radiator first passes through the charge

    air cooler and only then through the oil cooler, if fitted, and

    the engine. Investigations on a turbocharged truck engine /12.5/

    have shown that method 3, is the most advantageous with regard

    to cost effectiveness, followed by 4, which may have advantage of

    flexibility when fitted into an already available vehicle type.

    Optimization of air-fuel ratio and ignition timing are of prime

    importance with regard to the complex interrelationship between

    knocking combustion and ignition advance, mixture strength,

    boost pressure, charge and cylinder temperature and the effect

    of the variables on a power output, fuel consumption and exhaust

    missions. Fig. 12.8 shows the wellknownrelationship between fuel

    consumption at full power and air-fuel ratio at an ignition set-

    ting retarded 40 from the knock limit. Fuel consumption is quite

    sensitive to deviations, a rich mixture causing incomplete com-

    bustion and a lean one slow burning.

    load as a function of the trapped

    air-fuel ratio for an ignition retar-

    Emission control laws in the USA and in Europe differ from each

    other (they are more stringent in the USA, in particular as far

    1,4

    as NO is concerned). Exhaust emissions and fuel consumption cannot

    7

  • be optimized simultaneously (see Fig. 12.9), and cars for the

    American market therefore have to be equipped differently from

    those in Europe. Usually, engines for the USA are built with

    a tripie catalyser after the exhaust turbine and an oxygen probe,

    a so-called lambda indicator in the exhaust gas stream /12.7/.

    This probe controls the air-fuel ratio, keeping it to within

    very narrow limits of stoichiometric, which allows emissions to

    be reduced below the legal limits by means of the catalyser.

    The US-versions are usually sold with a somewhat lower peak

    output.

    Present European emission standards do not necessitate the use of

    a catalyser, but here too fuel consumption and emissions have to be

    optimized. As knocking combustion must not occur under any

    operating conditions, the ignition timing which is usually con-

    trolled only by engine load (carburetor vacuum) and engine speed

    (centrifugal control) must allow for a safety margin with regard to

    the knock limit. This margin can be reduced with electronic ig-

    nition timing (/12.8, 12.9, 12.10/), which takes into ac count fur-

    ther parameters such as engine and air temperatures. A microcom-

    puter calculates the optimum values of fuel rate and ignition

    timing according to the parameters measured by the probes, using

    8

  • a pre-programmed map that had been determined experimentally.

    Part load operation with lean mixtures is thus possible, resulting

    in redueed fuel eonsumption and exhaust emissions. Sehemes of

    this kind are also possible for naturally aspirated engines, but

    they are partieularly suitable for supereharged engines with a

    wider range of eonditions from part to full load operation.

    Further improvements going in the direetion of a elosed-Ioop eon-

    trol to aehieve an optimization of the eomplex interaetions in

    the spark ignition engine are investigated /12.11/.

    12.1. 2 Problems of thermal loading

    The temperature stresses in the turbine rotor assoeiated with

    high exhaust temperatures ean be eheeked satisfaetorily by the

    use of modern heat-resistant materials. The exhaust gas tempera-

    tures of spark ignition engines are eonsiderably higher than

    those of diesel engines, but the exhaust eontains little oxygen

    and is therefore less eorrosive. Small radial turbines usually

    have no bladed stator, the eorreet ineidenee angle at the rotor

    tip being aehieved by the dimensioning of the inlet serolI.

    Rather, problems with high temperatures may oeeur in the turbine

    easing, the exhaust manifold or the bypass valve. A eomplete

    separation of the exhaust gas from individual groups of eylinders

    all the way up to the turbine rotor, i.e. pure pulse turboehar-

    ging, is not yet possible beeause of the high exhaust temperatures.

    Inlet serolls with double entry do not yet have suffieient

    durability (thermal fraetures) /12.6/. Separating walls and lips,

    whieh would keep the gas flows apart, are burned off beeause

    there is no possibility for eooling /12.12/. Exhaust turboehar-

    gers for spark ignition engines therefore operate with full

    admission up to now. HO\\ever, if spaee allows one to collect the ex-

    haust from groups of eylinders with a suitable firing order into

    individual manifolds, it is advantageous to keep these manifolds

    separate up to some point before the turbine entry /11.2,11.19/.

    Based on developments for automative turbines, ceramie compo-

    nents that can withstand the high temperatures are also being

    developed for turboehargers.

    For example, ceramic inlet easings would probably make pulse

    turbocharging possible. A eonical diffusor irnrnediately after the

    turbine would inerease its effieiency /12.6/. To counter the

    increased heat flow in the engine eomponents, natrium eooled

    9

  • valves for spark ignition engines, oil cooling of the piston by

    a fixed jet and, if necessary, a larger cooling water pump to in-

    crease the flow are used.

    12.1.3 Control Problems

    Unlike the diesel engine, the spark ignition engine is quantity-

    controlled, requiring a throttle plate to control the charge

    quantity. The throttle plate can be located either in front of or

    after the charge compressor, in either case, there are advantages

    and disadvantages. The advantage of a throttle in front of the

    compressor is that the compressor will not surge when the throttle

    is suddenly closed during gear changes or when the vehicle pushes

    the engine. When the throttle is partly closed, the pressure level

    before compressor is reduced, moving the operating point in the

    compressor map for a given mass flow rate to the right and in-

    creasing the turbocharger speed at power equilibrium between

    turbine and compressor. Fig. 12.10 illustrates the difference in

    turbocharger speeds for throttles in front of and after the com-

    pressor. In the first case, the turbocharger runs at a higher

    Fig. 12.10 Turbocharger speeds with

    throttle plates placed either before

    (upper lines) or after corrpressor

    (lov.er lines) as functions of engine

    speed and load. From /12.2/ Fig. 40.

  • initial speed and accelerates better. With carburetor engines,

    a throttle in front of the compressor has the following advan-

    tages:

    - The same system as with the naturally aspirated engine

    can be used

    The tuning of the carburetor is easier

    - The turbulence in the crnpressor homogenizes the charge

    - The evaporation of the fuel reduces the charge temperature.

    However, the disadvantage of a throttle plate in front of the

    compressor is that the latter must be absolutely oiltight; other-

    wise, oil would be sucked into the engine at part load conditions.

    This would result in loss of oil, fouling and, in particular,

    unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas, because the oil sucked

    in would not burn completely. Carbon rings can seal the compres-

    sor shaft oil-tight, but have the disadvantage of increased wear

    and friction losses. If the carburetor is located after the

    engine, it has to be pressure tight and is usually of a two-stage

    design to simplify tuning.

    If the throttle plate is placed after the compressor, labyrinth

    seals with practically no wear can be used in the turbocharger.

    To avoid compressor surge when closing the throttle, apart-load

    discharge valve (recirculation valve) is often used which allows

    part of the compressed air to return to the compressor intake.

    The recirculation must not affect the metering of the air mass

    flow rate; see Fig.12.11 There may also be an additional vacuum

    limiter to prevent the backfiring of unburned lean mixture in the

    exhaust system when the engine is being pushed by the vehycle.

    No vacuum limiter is necessary if the ignition timing is greatly

    advanced under these conditions, e.g. by means of electronic

    timing.

    An air recirculation valve, which is often integrated into the

    turbocharger as shown in Fig. 12.12, is,according to Hiereth,

    /12.2, 12.4/ unnecessary if the exhaust bypass is controlled by

    the pressure in front of the throttle plate (see Fig. 12.13).

    It seems, however, that this simplification depends not only on

    such a control mechanism, but also on the position of the surge

    line in the compressor map and on the design of the charge air

    manifold.

    From /12.2/ Fig. 36

    Fig. 12.13 also introduces one to the control of the exhaust tur-

    bine, which is absolutely necessary for automotive engines. As

    13

  • already mentioned, the motor car puts high demands on the torque

    characteristic and the acceleration of the engine, as weil as on

    the speed and mass flow range of the compressor. The fundamental

    problems posed by the exhaust turbocharing with regard to accele-

    ration and torque characteristic, and methods to meet these re-

    quirements were already discussed in sections 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4.

    All motor car engines offered for sale at the moment use exhaust

    bypass control; it appears that small turbochargers with variable

    geometry are either unreliable or too expensive. With bypass con-

    trol the turbocharger is designed for a flow rate corresponding

    to an average engine speed; the compressor and in particular the

    turbine are much smaller than would be sensible in order to achieve

    maximum power at full engine speed. A small turbine flow area is

    necessary not only with regard to the torque characteristic, but

    also to obtain good acceleration. The effect of the turbine flow

    area on the boost pressure is considerable /12.2/.

    At full engine output, an uncontrolled turbocharger of this design

    would overspeed and overboost, with all the consequences for the

    loading of turbocharger and engine. f the various bypass arrange-

    ments,such as discharging the air from a certain boost pressure

    onwards, or bypassing the exhaust gas under the control of the

    back or boost pressure, the first is no longer in use. As ex-

    plained in publications such as /11.2/, the bypassing of exhaust gas

    is thermodynamically advantageous, because it reduces the back

    pressure at full load as compared to the discharging of air.

    The back pressure, with exhaust bypass control at high engine

    speeds usually higher than the boost pressure, increases the dis-

    placement work of the piston and the amount of exhaust gas trapped

    in the cylinder. This in turn increases the fuel consumption.

    With exhaust bypass control, the turbine can be made smaller

    because of the smaller flow rate, resulting in higher efficiences

    and better acceleration from part-load conditions. In addition,

    the turbine blading is frequently designed to give an unsymmetri-

    cal efficiency characteristic with respect to u/co' slanted

    towards higher efficiencies at small flow rates.

    The exhaust bypass valve, also called waste gate, can be integra-

    ted into the turbocharger or it can be attached to the exhaust

    14

  • manifold. Garrett-AiResearch have developed two different rnethods

    for the control of this valve (see Fig. 12.14), one for dry air

    in the compressor (for diesel engines and petrol engines with

    fuel injection into the intake man[old) and the other for layouts,

    in which the carburetor is located in front of the compressor

    /12.13/. In the first instance, the actuator of the waste gate is

    integrated into the valve and located at the turbine casing; in

    the second instance, the actuator is located on the compressor

    casing and seperated from the valve.

    waste gate and control pressure tap on the seroll. Dry and W8t versions

    for air (left) and air-fuel mixture (right).

    The diaphragm of the actuator, made of Viton, has only limited

    heat resistance, and the valve, whether integrated or not,

    should therefore be located in the air stream of the cooling fan

    and be equipped with fins. It can also be useful to cool the

    diaphragm by the means of air bled from the control line, as long

    as this does not affect mixture control; the air must not contain

    fuel. In the design for diesel engines shown in Fig. 12.15, the

    cooling air passes through a bore in the valve shaft to the low-

    pressure side and is discharged through a suitable passage together

    with the exhaust gas.

    The separate installation of the bypass valve offers the advantage

    waste gate with cooling bores,

    of better cooling in the air flow of the fan. The valve can also

    be controlled by the engine back pressure instead of the boost

    pressure. In this case, a longer control line becomes necessary

    to allow the exhaust gas to cool down. As the rate of flow only

    caused by leakage is very small, the cooling of the exhaust gas

    poses no particular problems. Fig. 12.16 gives an example of a

    bypass valve controlled by the back pressure, in which the con-

    trolling pressure acts in the same direction as the back pressure

    against the spring force. In addition, in this design for the

    5-cylinder engine of the Audi 200 /12.19/, the static pressure at the

    compressor inlet acts on the upper side of the diaphragm. For a

    given total pressure, i.e. the ambient pressure, the static

    pressure decreases with the rate of air flow so that the boost

    pressure drops again with increasing engine speed as shown in

    Fig. 12.17. Maximum boost is thus generated only in the region of

    maximum torque. Aboost pressure rising with falling engine speed

    can also be obtained by means of resonance pipes between compres~

    sor and engine tuned to a low engine speed in addition to the

    bypass control.

    12.2 Diesel engines

    Because of the differences already mentioned - no knock limit,

    low exhaust temperatures, quality control - the supercharging of

    motor car diesel engines is much simpler than that of petrol

    engines. The same rules apply as far as turbocharger matching and

    control are concerned. Because of the low exhaust temperatures,

    pulse turbocharging combining suitable cylinders is possible.

    Again, the large range of engine speeds makes waste gating

    necessary. With regard to cost, manifold layout and space re-

    quirements, only one bypass valve is usually employed. The branches

    of the exhaust manifold are in this case combined be fore the tur-

    bine, giving full admission to the turbine. If the torque

    characteristic is more important than peak power, charge air

    cooling is unnecessary.

    To avoid smoke at low boost pressures, the fuel injection pumps

    are equipped with aboost pressure-controlled fuel limiter.

    Alternatively, the fuel limiter can also be controlled by the

    absolute pressure to take into account the decreasing air density

    at higher altitudes.

    17

  • 12.3 Advantages of supercharging motor car engines

    The advantages claimed here are the same as for supercharging in

    general: Reduced weight and space requirements for a given power

    output as compared to the naturally aspirated engine, lower cost

    per unit output, higher efficiency for diesel engines in particu-

    lar, larger operating range for a given engine, smaller radiator for a given output, reduced noise and emissions. The two factors

    mentioned first initially carried the greatest weight, so that

    supercharging was introduced in the engines of racing and

    sports cars. A small turbocharger with speeds up to 150000 rev/min

    boosting the engine output by 40 kW to 110 kW weighs about 6 kg.

    Mounted directly onto the exhaust manifold, it requires no sup-

    port. Despite the additional waste gate and the extra air and

    exhaust manifolds, the ratio of additional power to additional

    weight is much more favourable than the corresponding ratio of

    naturally aspirated engine. Volkswagen /12.14/ state that the

    mass-to-power ratio of a 1.5 liter naturally aspirated diesel

    engine with an output of 37 kW is 3 kg/kW, whereas for the same

    engine turbocharged to 55 kW it is only 2,4 kg/kW. The latter

    engine has a turbocharger with integrated waste gate, but no

    charge air cooler.

    Statements about savings are more difficult to come by. Small

    turbochargers manufactured in large numbers are by themselves

    quite cheap, but the necessary alterations to the manifolds

    and the engine (such as oil-jet piston cooling) and possible

    alterations in the engine compartment affect manufacturing costs.

    The penetration of turbocharged engines in motor vehicles has

    been given aboost by new emission standards and the energy

    crisis. Measures to limit the emissions of petrol engines by means

    of lean mixtures and retarded ignition timing have resulted in

    apower reduction that can be more than compensated with turbo-

    charging. More expensive engines with larger displacements are

    therefore not necessary. For economic reasons, too, operation

    with rich mixtures to obtain maximum power should be avoided.

    Supercharged petrol engines, too, may have a lower fuel consump-

    tion than naturally aspirated engines of equal power because of the

    18

  • reduced friction losses of a smaller engine, particularly in the

    lower output range (see Fig. 12.18). At full load, fuel con-

    sumption is not always lower because of the compromise between

    fuel consumption and acceleration presently made. A small turbo-

    charger or a narrow inlet scroll improve acceleration, but

    increase fuel consumption at full load. At part load, the

    turbocharged engine is always more efficient; at full load, it

    all depends on the design compromise.

    Fuel economy is measured on the road, exhaust emission in a

    standardized test. As a rule, the supercharged engine leads

    in both measures; see for example Tables 12.1 and 12.11.

    In Fig. 12.19, the fuel consumptions of two naturally aspirated

    petrol engines of different outputs are compared with those of

    two diesel engines, one supercharged, the other not, but all

    mounted in the same vehicle. Clearly, consumption of the turbo

    diesel is considerably reduced at higher speeds.

    In F ig. 12.9, the difference in fuel consumption between opti-

    mizing with respect to fuel economy or emissions had already

    been illustrated. Even the emissions-optimized engine showed a

    slightly reduced consumption at part loads. In addition,

    Table 12.111 indicates that the consumption-optimized super-

    charged engine has lower CO emissions even without a catalyzer.

    The large amount of hydrocarbons was traced in this case to

    an oil leak in the compressor. Noise emissions, too, have been

    reported by several workers to be reduced with supercharging,

    particularly as far as exhaust noise is concerned. The turbine

    muffles the lower frequencies which are otherwise more difficult

    to control. Thus, a simpler muffler with decreased flow resistance

    may be used.

  • not on the same engine in a naturally aspirated and a super-

    charged version. The lagging of the boost pressure in the turbo-

    charged engine cannot be avoided altogether. The pick-up of the

    boost pressure depends mainly on the turbine design, i.e. its

    flow area and the inertia of the rotor. According to Hiereth

    /12.2/, the lag might be acceptable if the pressure pick-up was

    not delayed by more than 0.5 seconds. A comparison between the

    accelerations of a naturally aspirated and a turbocharged engine

    is not unfavourable for the latter (see Fig. 12.20). According

    to /12.8/, the lag in boost pressure and output may even be

    advantageous, because the danger of spinning of the driving wheels

    is reduced for powerful cars. It is likely that the driver has

    to adjust to the response of the turbocharged engine; after this

    adjustment, he will not be aware of any disadvantages.

    Volkswagen have shown with their experimental vehicle /12.15/,

    that the turbocharged diesel engine can reach good values of fuel

    consumption and exhaust and noise emissions. The combustion

    process was optimized for emissions, nitrogen oxides were reduced

    by means of exhaust recirculation, and the engine was fully

    enclosed. The practical application of such an optimized engine

    is, however, still hampered by considerably higher production

    costs.

  • 12.4 Examples of current design

    12.4.1 Petrol engines

    From among the many types of turbocharged engines presently manu-

    factured or developed, only a few examples can be briefly des-

    cribed here, preferably those of European origin for which tech-

    nical publications are available. Further details can be found

    in the publications mentioned.

    The company of Dr.h.c. Porsche Ltd. initially developed turbo-

    charged engines for racing cars. The model 917 was mentioned as

    an example in the first edition of this book. In 1975, the model

    924 was introduced with a watercooled, naturally aspirated 2-1itre

    engine of 92 kW/11.12/. The demand for greater engine power lead

    to the 924 Turbo, Fig. 12.21, which is produced in a European

    version of 125 kW using premium gasoline and an American version

    of 110 kW using regular unleaded gasoline and an exhaust cataly-

    ser to meet the more demanding emissions standards. The exhaust

    turbocharger by KKK type K 26 has an integrated air recirculation

    valve and aseparate exhaust waste gate as shown in Fig. 12.12.

    The additional output of 33 kW is obtained with an extra mass

    of 29 kg (turbocharger including recirculation valve, additional

    manifold, no charge air cooler) .

    441 kW output, and model 936 with 2142 cm3 and 382 kW were deve-

    loped /12.16/. Both engines have turbochargers for each bank as

    shown in Fig. 12.22, with turbines triple-pulse operated under

    full admission. The model 935 has air-water charge air cooling,

    the model 936 an air-air cooler.

    The Swedish company Saab were the first to produce a passengercar

    with a turbocharged petrol engine for the European market. The

    models 99 turbo and 900 turbo have a four-cylinder engine of

    1985 cm3 displacement and compression ratio 7.2:1, producing

    106 kW at 5000 rev/min; see Fig.12.23 /12.17/. The torque peaks

    at 3000 rev with 225 Nm, falling to 190 Nm at 5500 rev/min. A

    Garret-AiResearch turbocharger with integrated waste gate con-

    trolled by the engine back pressure is used. The four cylinders

    have a common exhaust manifold for constant-pressure turbochar-

    ging. Maximum boost is 0.7 bar gauge; the engine is equipped

    with natrium-cooled valves and mechanical fuel injection (Bosch

    K - Jetronic).

    At the IAA in Frankfurt in 1979, both Bayerische Motorenwerke

    (BMW) and Audi NSU Auto Union presented turbocharged models for

    sale in 1980. The BMW engine has six cylinders of 3.2 litre dis-

    placement, producing a peak output of 185 kW at 5200 rev/min for

    Peak torque is 380 Nm at 2600 rev/min, falling to 340 Nm at full

    speed. The exhaust manifold is shared by all six cylinders.

    The KKK turbocharqer is not combined with the waste qate: for retter coolinq,

    the latter is attachEd to the exhaust manifold and controlled by the

    boost pressure picked up at the compressor spiral casing. The

    charge air, leaving the compressor downward, passes through a

    charge air cooler placed in the air flow, the throttle and the

    air distributor into six resonater pipes of equal length. In order

    to avoid compressor surge, an air recirculation valve is placed

    in front of the throttle. Fig. 12.25 illustrates the flow scheme

    of air and exhaust gas. The charge air is cooled by more than

    400 C at the higher speeds. The operating point on the compressor

    boosting control, all by cutting off the impulses to the fuel ih-

    jection valves. Fig. 12.27 is a sectioned isometrie drawing of the

    turbocharged Audi five-cylinder engine /12.19/. With few exceptions,

    the components of this 2.144 litre engine are identical with those

    to reduce the compression ratio to 7:1, and the exhaust valves are

    natrium-cooled. The exhaust manifold, shown in Fig. 12.28, is cast

    in one piece of austenitic modular iron with an additional flange

    for the waste gate, and contains separate channels for cylinders

    1, 2 + 5 and 3 + 4. Thermal expansion had to be taken into ac count

    in table 12.IV. The only passenger car engine with so-called

    combined turbocharging to become known is the re-design of the

    3-litre 6-cylinder BMW engine by ALPINA Burkhard Bovensiepen KG,

    Buchloe. It produces the notable output of 221 kW, or nearly 100 hp

    per litre /12.8, 12.20/. The arrangement of the resonator pipes and

    the receiver volume can readily be seen in Fig. 12.29.

    An exhaust turbocharger by KKK type K 27 is used; the separate

    waste gate reduces the thermal problems. In contra-distinction

    to the usual arrangement, the air flow controlling the fuel in-

    jection is mete red after the compressor to keep the inlet pressure

    loss low. The compressor is more sensitive to throttling on the

    inlet than on the outlet; also, the denser air after the compres-

    sor produces larger control forces on the stagnation plate or

    baffle. Fig. 12.30 illustrates the power and torque characteri-

    stics of the 3 litre ALPINA engine, both with tuned intake mani-

    fold and with turbocharging combined with resonator. Fig. 12.31

    shows the difference in acceleration.

    12.4.2 Diesel Engines

    The turbocharging of passenger car diesel engines advances only

    slowly, even though it causes fewer problems than that of petrol

    engines and had been used early in diesel racing cars in the USA.

    engine OM617, of the turbocharged version OM617A and of the

    record engine are shown in Fig. 12.33. The engine has a common

    exhaust manifold for all five cylinders, a number which is un-

    favourable for pulse turbocharging. The production engine has a

    Garret AiResearch turbocharger type T03 with integrated waste

    gate, but there is no waste gate on the different turbocharger of

  • mits the boost pressure ratio to 1.75, but in the record engine it

    can reach a value of 3.3. Without wastegating, this pressure ratio

    is obtained at a back pressure ratio P3/P 4 = 2.7 (Fig. 12.34). The fuel consumption of the turbocharged version is in all tests

    lower than that of the naturally aspirated engine, and the same

    applies to CO and HC emissions /12.21/. The slightly increased

    emission of NOx could possibly be reduced below that of the natu-

    rally aspirated engine, if charge air cooling were used (see section

    8.6.1 and Fig. 8.27). The engine type OM 617 A-Turbo was initially

    available only in the USA, but is sold everywhere from 1980 on-

    wards.

    The 1.5 litre turbocharged diesel engine of the Volkswagen Golf

    is included here, even though it is not yet in production. Reports

    containing detailed and remarkable test results are already

    available; as far as is known, this is presently the smallest tur-

    bocharged diesel engine with the highest output relative to its

    displacement. The vehicles existing with this turbocharged engine

    are all research objects, developed in conjunction with the U.S.

    32

  • Department of Trade (DOT) or the German Federal Ministry of Re-

    search and Technology (BMFT) in order to demonstrate the technical

    feasability. In addition to the publications /12.14, 12.15/ al-

    ready mentioned, areport is also available by the DOT /12.24/

    describing the results of tests regarding fuel consumption,

    exhaust emissions, noise level, top speed, acceleration and so on,

    of several prototype VW diesel engines with and without turbo-

    charging that have been installed in vehicles of various sizes and

    weights.

    The four-cylinder engine with swirl combustion chamber (see Fig.

    12.35) has a bore of 70 mm and a stroke of 80 mm and is equipped

    with a Garret-AiResearch turbocharger type T 3 with integrated

    waste gate. The output is 55 kW, an increase of 50 % over the

    naturally aspirated engine with 50 hp (37 kW). Stiff emissions

    regulations, for example the NOx limit of 1 g/mile valid in the

    Fig. 12.35 View of the Golf turbo diesel engine by vw

    USA from 1980 onwards, require a slight reduetion of output be-

    cause exhaust gas recirculation is used. Table 12.V summarizes

    the main spezifieations of the fully enelosed Golf engine with

    exhaust gas recireulation. It remains an open question whether the

    NOx limit could also be met by charge air eooling instead of

    exhaust gas recirculation which has some drawbacks regarding fuel

    consumption and CO emissions.

    Another turbocharged diesel engine already available commercially is the XD 2S by Peugeot(Fig. 12.36). The fourcylinder engine of

    Fig. 12.36 View of Peugeot turbo

    diesel engine XD25 with OOost

    pressure contra! system /12.25/

    boost pressure control system

    94 mm bore, 83 mm stroke and 2304 cm3 displacement has an output

    of 59 kW and a torque of 120 Nm at 4150 rev/min. The maximum

    34

  • torque of 180 Nm at 2000 rev/min is 50 % higher than that at full

    speed /12.25/.

    The engine is equipped with a Garret AiResearch turbocharger type

    T03 with integrated wastegate that limits the boost to 0.6 bar

    gauge. All of the Peugeot diesel engines use the swirl chamber

    combustion system Ricardo-Comet Mk 5.

    The Italian company Stabilimenti Meccanica VM in Cento which

    originally built mainly diesel engines for industrial use, has

    now developed aseries of engines with 4,5 and 6 cylinders of be-

    tween 1995 and 3589 cm3 displacement which in their turbocharged

    HT versions are intended for installation in passenger cars /12.26/.

    The smallest four-cylinder turbocharged diesel Type 488 HT with a

    bore of 88 mm and a displacement of 1995 cm3 produces an output of

    63 kW at 4300 rev/min and a peak torque of 260 Nm at 2500 rev/min.

    The engines have KKK turbochargers with integrated wastegates and

    Bosch distributor-type injection pumps. A view of the HR 488 HT

    destined for the Alfa Romeo "Alfetta" is given in Fig.12.37.

    engine 488 HT with KKK K24 turbo-

    charger /12.26/

    Other turbocharged diesel engines for passenger cars are under

    development, such as those BMW are developing: alone a 2.4 litre

    engine and another one together with Steyer-Daimler-Puch and the

    AVL of Prof. List /12.27/.
