<p>A turbo compound engine including driving power transmission means for drivingly connecting a crankshaft of the engine to a power turbine provided in an exhaust gas passage, so as to secure an adequate breaking force which is relatively weakened by an improvement in engine performance, by activating a power turbine by means of the driving power transmission means during exhuast breaking, thereby transforming the work of the power turbine to breaking force of the crankshaft in order to increase the entire breaking force of the engine.</p> |
