A FAST RESPONSE TURBOCHARGING SYSTEM

A simple control system is described which improves the transient performance of turbocharged automotive gasoline engines by removing the compressor from the intake airflow when boost pressure is not required. Experimental results are presented showing a considerable reduction in the time required to attain steady state boost pressure after rapid throttle openings from part load.
