SUPERCHARGED DIESEL ENGINES

摘要

A diesel engine comprises one or more cylinders (2), an inlet duct (4), an exhaust duct (6), a first pressure boosting device (10) of variable output type situated in the inlet duct (4) and a second pressure boosting device (14) of variable output type situated in the inlet duct downstream of the first pressure boosting device (10). A selectively operable bypass duct (11) is connected to the inlet duct (4) at positions upstream and downstream of the second pressure boosting device (14). A selectively variable throttle valve (15) is situated in the inlet duct (4) at a position between the second pressure boosting device (14) and the upstream connection of the bypass duct (11) with the inlet duct (4). An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) duct (20) is connected to the exhaust duct (6) and to the inlet duct (4) at a position between the throttle valve (15) and the second pressure boosting device (14).
