TURBOCHARGER SYSTEM |
| 摘要 |
A turbocharger system is provided comprising: a turbocharger having a compressor wheel and a turbine wheel connected by a shaft; a conduit configured to deliver a flow of lubricant to a bearing which supports the shaft, the conduit being provided with a valve; a sensor configured to monitor a speed of rotation of the shaft; and a controller configured to operate the valve to substantially stop the flow of lubricant to the bearing in response to detection of deceleration of the shaft and the speed of the shaft dropping below a threshold. |
