Methods for improving transient response of diesel engines – influences of different electrically assisted turbocharging topologies

The paper presents a comprehensive study on engine performance improvement attributable to application of different electrically assisted turbocharger topologies. Performance of a baseline turbocharged high-speed direct-injection (HSDI) diesel engine is compared to the performance of an engine utilizing an electrically assisted turbocharger, an engine utilizing a turbocharger with an additional el…
