<p>An exhaust driven turbocharger (10) for a medium speed diesel engine such as for use in a diesel locomotive includes an exhaust duct (26) supported at one end by a rotor support (14) having rigidly connected feet (42) mountable upon a rigid base. The exhaust duct (26) is supported at an axially opposite end by an exhaust duct support (36) that includes laterally spaced support legs (44) extending from individual mounting feet (46) to points (48) connecting with a support portion (50) of the exhaust duct support (36) located above the axis of the rotor. The legs (44) are configured to be essentially rigid in reducing vertical forces, but are made flexible laterally and axially so as to allow both lateral and radial expansion and contraction of the exhaust duct while limiting resulting stresses from the thermal variations in the exhaust duct (26), the exhaust duct support (36) and the supporting base.</p> |
