OS1-7 A Study on the Applicability of a Mechanical Supercharger to a Diesel Engine for the Commercial Vehicle(OS1: Ultimate thermal efficiency,Organized Session Papers)

Naoya Ishikawa,Hikaru Itoh,Junichiro Nitta-2012-01-01-The Proceedings of the International symposium on diagnostics and modeling of combustion in internal combustion engines

TL;DRAbstract

A supercharging system comprising of a mechanical supercharger and a turbo charger was investigated with experimental and numerical analysis in a diesel engine for use in a commercial vehicle. The frictional losses of the mechanical supercharger were reduced by putting it together with a turbo charger. Furthermore, it was found that the fuel consumption of the vehicle could be improved by optimizing power train specifications. This was accomplished due to the increased low-end torque which was enabled by a mechanical supercharger.
