Modelling for a Turbocharger in Rotordynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Turbochargers are widely used on commercial automotive vehicles, power generation and marine applications. A comprehensive model for a turbocharger would be an effective tool for fault detection. In this paper, research focus on mathematical modelling of turbochargers supported on floating ring bearings in rotordynamics. Nonlinear hydrodynamic forces are considered in order to describe the dynamic behaviour of the rotor system. Following model development, a numerical simulation is implemented. Vibration of turbocharger and floating ring under the influence of rotor imbalance are predicted.

Experimental study of the effects of repetitive surge condition on turbocharger performance
When the mass flow rate through the compressor is reduced at a constant pressure ratio, mass flow rate will drop to an extent that the complete reversal of flow and surge occurs. Recently many research focuses on turbocharger surge, however, there are not enough investigation on the effect of surge on the performance of the turbocharger. The aim of the paper is to investigate the effect of repe...
متن کاملGain Scheduling Waste-gate Control of Turbocharger Using MATLAB & GT-POWER
Turbochargers are used to increase engine manifold air pressure. Control of intake manifold pressure is crucial issue which is done through the speed control of turbocharger, but since it is difficult to directly control the speed of the turbocharger, it is done indirectly through a gate that called the waste gate, which is located in the engine outlet and turbocharger’s turbine inlet. One of t...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of a Variable Geometry Turbocharger Using Mean Line Method
Turbocharging an engine boosts its power by increasing the amount of input air. This task is accomplished by using the exhaust gas to power a turbine which is engaged with a compressor. The Variable Geometry Turbocharger, VGT is a unique turbocharger that the diffuser vane angle can be changed over a wide range of positions. The mathematics of turbomachinery flow analysis is intensive and uses ...

We develop novelty detection techniques for the analysis of data from a large-vehicle engine turbocharger in order to illustrate how abnormal events of operational significance may be identified with respect to a model of normality. Results are validated using polynomial function modelling and reduced dimensionality visualisation techniques to show that system operation can be automatically cla...
متن کاملSteady-state modeling of a turbocharger in gasoline engines
The gas flow estimation is crucial for the proper operation and monitoring of turbocharged (TC) engines with a torque structured engine control unit (ECU). This paper presents mean value models developed for modeling gas flow over the compressor, the turbine and the wastegate (WG) in a TC gasoline engine not equipped with a hot film air-mass flow meter (HFM). The turbine flow ...
