Overview 

This document contains information on:

General 

The charging compresses the intaken fresh air and increases the cylinder charge level. The engine output increases.

Turbocharger 

The exhaust gases reach the turbine wheel via the intake on the exhaust gas turbocharger's turbine wheel housing.

Via a constriction, thermal energy is converted into kinetic energy and the turbine wheel starts to rotate.

The turbine wheel sits on the same shaft as the compressor wheel. The compressor wheel is set in motion by the rotation of the turbine wheel and intakes fresh air.

The fresh air sucked in is compressed in the compressor wheel housing and reaches the engine through an outlet via the charge air cooler.

Electric additional compressor 

The additional compressor consists of an electric motor that drives a rolling-element-bearing-supported compressor shaft. The electric additional compressor is supplied with voltage by the 48 V on-board electrical system. This means that it works independently of the air flow of the exhaust gases that drive the classic exhaust gas turbocharger.

Two-stage charging 

In the case of two-stage charging, two exhaust gas turbochargers of different sizes are used. The small exhaust gas turbocharger is responsible for the low engine speed range. For the higher engine speed range, an exhaust valve opens the supply to the large exhaust gas turbocharger depending on the load request. An additional exhaust valve controls the opening to the exhaust gas line.

IMPORTANT The exhaust valves are opened and closed by pneumatic vacuum cells.

The pneumatic vacuum cells are actuated by the combustion engine control unit via the pressure transducer.
