Overview 

This document contains information on:

General 

At a high compressor wheel rotational speed, the compressor and turbine wheels continue to turn due to inertia after the throttle valve is closed.

A high back pressure arises between the compressor wheel and the throttle valve. The back pressure causes a breakaway of flow at the compressor blades. A breakaway of flow results in compressor pumping. In the case of compressor pumping, there is a backlog of air between the throttle valve and the compressor wheel, and the compressor wheel blocks itself.

A turbocharger surge is prevented by the opening of the overrun mode bypass air switchover valve via the rapid pressure reduction in the intake side of the exhaust gas turbocharger (3) via a bypass.

Function requirements 

Function 

The overrun mode bypass air switchover valve (2) is integrated in the compressor wheel housing and opens the bypass from the compressor side via the energization of the integrated solenoid. The excess boost pressure and corresponding air volume are thus reduced and prevent the exhaust gas turbocharger (3) from reaching the surge limit. If the engine changes from overrun mode to load operation, the overrun mode bypass air switchover valve (2) is no longer actuated and the bypass is closed by the spring load of the overrun mode bypass air switchover valve (2).

IMPORTANT The combustion engine control unit actuates the overrun mode bypass air switchover valve (2) in a load-dependent manner.
